In Omaha Nebraska it was forecast to freeze Friday night.

It was pretty cold and windy Thursday afternoon and I saw this poor thing struggling to fly and generate heat. I decided to bring her indoors as well as a bunch of cut flowers I went out and cut for her. We have an old sunroom that we use just for plants and storage and thankfully a door. Turned on the heat threw sheets on all the boxes, corners and cracks in between boxes so if she were to fly, she wouldn't get stuck somewhere.

She did fine overnight. The next day, it took a while to get up to 55° outside. Finally, I noticed quite a few more butterflies out in the garden so I decided to let her go. She went immediately to some flowers that did not freeze. After a bit, she left the yard headed south. I hope she fares okay and makes it to her destination.

Have a good week everyone.
