A California Sister butterfly lands on Amanda Stinson’s hand.

Amanda Stinson had just built this stone tower when this California Sister butterfly flitted down on her hand.

Just why was Amanda building a stone tower? I'll let her answer.

Amanda wrote, “When I caught wind of a ‘balance for peace day,’ with rock balancers from all over the world, I had to participate. When I finished, a California Sister appeared, fluttering around, made a balance on my fingers, and graciously posed for a picture. It seems butterflies like peace too.”

Thanks to Amanda for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
