I had my first butterfly to make it out of its chrysalis, I just happened to walk by my chrysalis container and saw a black wrinkled mass. It must have just happened. It did not take long at all for the wings to unfold and take their normal shape and the whole time I was taking pictures and trying to make sure it was in the right position for everything to come out right. It is now waiting for the wings to harden. I can't tell if it's a male or female but I feel pretty happy about it.

Thanks Melanie for the inspiration,

Anole
