After lunch, when I stepped into the insect house, passing the butterfly display case, I saw something by the side of the cocoon.
Oh! a Lamproptera curius was standing by the side of its cocoon.The wings was going bigger and bigger.Minutes later, it tried its first flying.
Later it was free - going back to the wild.
It was standing on our fingers.
I did not bring a camera. let me see whether I shall receive it's photos from volunteers.
Luckily, Daphne has already sent me its photos in a zip file. I will upload here after doing unzip.
Stephen aslo sent me six photos.
On Monday, July 11, I received letty's photos as well.
There is another Lamproptera curius(燕鳳蝶) will be born soon, perhaps in several days.
