On my bedroom window sill (inside!)
How did this lovely creature get there? I didn't think they were around at this time of year! What do i do with it? Will it die if i put it out? Or shall i keep it as my new pet?!

Oh it's beautiful!

Can you open a window and see if it will fly out on its own?

Most butterflies don't live long at all (some can't even eat) but it's the life stage where they mate so it needs to be outside to find one really

Lucky you! My mum always said it was good luck when a butterfly landed on you.
