Wow!! You have such a beautiful group of fairies!
The colours are stunning and the monarch butterfly seems very happy to spend company with your girls.

Thank you guys! Yep, the butterflies were very cooperative. I wonder if they wondered what was going on.

Your photos are so great! Of your massive photoload, you definitely got some good shots!
... I questioned myself if those were real butterflies, because they look so TAME. (Ours would be flitting away!)
(And wherever you got your wings, they're precious! )

They are actually pretty easy to handle, having just hatched. I used to tag them for migration research (not enough around to do that here). I had to keep them overnight till the wings were hard enough to apply the sticky tags, so I still have the "cages" (cardboard boxes with sheer-curtain "windows"). So I can still keep them till they get restless. Also if it's cold they aren't too active. So I get a little time to play with them. Once they start flying away from where I put them it's time to take them out into the sun and say bon voyage.

And a shoutout to "Mei4Life" on Etsy, creator of the gorgeous wings! (And DeadlyNova who first posted a photo of some!)

My questions answered! X3 That is so neat you could picture your dolls with the butterflies like that. :3
