Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I was visiting my son’s gravesite and asked for a sign and this butterfly came and was very attached to me. It played around with me for a good 20 minutes, I just couldn’t believe it. I knew it was a sign that it was my baby boy. It was a beautiful, special moment that I captured and now will cherish forever.
