A friend’s Facebook posts had said if one were to see feathers, they were blessings from angels, so I've been saying, "Thank you, Angel," every time I see one.
Told my friend Jackie about this.
Yesterday, we were walking in a small local community park (veg and flower beds, and pond) when a butterfly came over to me and landed briefly on my right hand. Jackie said, "That's better than a feather from an angel!"
She'd recognised it as a comma butterfly (Polygonia c-album). We googled it, and guess what they're commonly called??!!? Spooky or what?
Wikipedia:
The Comma is a species of butterfly belonging to the family Nymphalidae. Its irregular wing edges are characteristic of the Polygonia genus, which is why they are commonly called anglewings.
