It is with a heavy heart that I write that Hubert has passed away. Though tragic, it is not unexpected. I knew butterflies live way shorter lives than other animal species, being insects and all. He did live longer that I expected, I’ll admit, so I’m proud to say his life was a great one.Continue reading “3/5/2020”

After having realized I did not post yesterday, I will make up for it with this. This was taken yesterday. Hubert is guarding the bananas, as per usual. This seems to be a job he really enjoys. Meanwhile, this photo was taken today. He is definitely more mellow than he was yesterday. He also appearsContinue reading “3/3-4/2020”

Hubert looks dead, but I’m pretty sure he’s not. He’s hanging on for dear life, probably because he doesn’t want to fall into the bananas. He was flying around quite a bit yesterday, and I showed him to some family and friends during my sibling’s birthday party. He didn’t seem too fond of the attentionContinue reading “3/2/2020”

Hubert really is a strange creature. I’m not sure what exactly he’s doing in this photo, but I’m not going to question it because it looks like he’s having fun. I still haven’t changed out his food, and I’m not sure whether or not I’ll have time for that today. I really like this picture,Continue reading “3/1/2020”

It’s Leap Day, and while Hubert hasn’t been leaping, he has been moving his wings quite a bit. It’s as if he’s showing absolutely no signs of him reaching the end like he was not even a week ago. I’m not sure what happened, but he just seems a lot better now! Of course, thatContinue reading “2/29/2020”

For a while now, Hubert has been simply resting on the toothpicks. Today, however, that changed! I actually saw him flying around for once! Granted I think it’s because his wings accidentally touched the bananas and he got scared. However, it’s good to see him flying around again. I was worried that he was reachingContinue reading “2/28/2020”

I moved the toothpicks around in Hubert’s cage so he would have more room, based on my theory that he was stuck. He is still alive and still flinched when I did this, but he saw no reason to fly away from me. I don’t even think he left from his toothpick to come downContinue reading “2/27/2020”

Hubert is still relaxing on the toothpick, but I know he’s still alive. I gave him more bananas to eat, and he moved around a little bit. I’m beginning to wonder if maybe he’s just stuck? I’m not sure though, it looks like he could get out of there if he really wanted to. MaybeContinue reading “2/26/2020”

This picture was taken at a different side from the previous post, but truth be told, Hubert hasn’t been moving around much at all. It’s confirmed that he’s not dead, as my dad and I were watching it last night. He moved the cup around slightly, and Hubert did flinch. However, I’m beginning to wonderContinue reading “2/25/2020”

I honestly have no clue what Hubert is doing. It looks like he’s hanging on for dear life, but I think he has at least two legs on the toothpick. Maybe he’s just trying to show off his acrobatic skills? I have no clue. He can’t tell me either. Yesterday, he had his wings openedContinue reading “2/24/2020”
