3. That woman is an angel.

BTW, butterfly enthusiasts collect "used" butterfly wings for this purpose. They use them to repair the wings of Monarchs that have broken wings.

8. That's a wonderful story

The woman who fixed the butterfly's wing with a feather is a hero. I'm glad she and the butterfly met, she saved his life.

15. Impressive and very inventive.

Particularly considering the effort it took to save a creature that has such a short lifespan. "Monarch butterflies typically live from 2 to 6 weeks except for the last generation of the year, which can live up to 8 to 9 months."

Lovely story.
