Butterflies took flight for their first time thanks to dedicated 91原创 residents.

After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the City of 91原创 Library held its fourth annual butterfly release on Thursday, May 25.

Hundreds of butterflies were released by kids and library staff.

Sandeep Khaira, community librarian and supervisor, said it was great to see kids come and learn about the butterfly鈥檚 life cycle.

鈥淲hoever came to the library would look at the butterflies and watch their circle of life, it was very popular,鈥� she said.

Caring for the butterflies was a team effort of nursing them as caterpillars before they turned into cocoons. Less than a week later, the cocoons 鈥渉atched鈥� and butterflies appeared.

The butterfly release is for all ages, drop in attendance, and occurs annually at the library.
