Was able to get quite friendly with a recently emerged female Monarch Butterfly by getting it to crawl onto my hand and then transferring it to my shirt. It stayed for about a minute before then flying north.
This was actually the second day in a row that I got to do this. The day before it was a male Monarch that crawled up to my shoulder, stayed a bit, and then flew towards our canyon. Those pictures turned out completely sucky so use your imagination instead. (I said imagination, Lisa, not fantasy.)
