My daughter is 3 years old. She is always trying to help me with pinning and framing and really likes trying to help but she is limited in what she can do. Yesterday, she took my net and went out to the front yard. 5 minutes later she came in and yelled "Daddy, I caught a butterfly!" In the small net, she had a D. plexippus, a Vanessa atalanta, a heliconian, and a Phoebis species! I've never had that kind of luck!

I think she put them individually in a jar and then put them back into the net collectively to show me. Still clever. She likes to sit in the yard and wait with net in hand.

Wingedwishes, Do treasure these moments. I remember the first butterfly each of my daughters caught me....and....I still have each one proudly mounted in the collection so marked. One was a Colias and the other a Limenitiis. Neither one was rare, but each one is special because those little hands and that love of their father young daughters have makes them priceless. Sounds like you had one of those moments a bit ago  |
