While the little one was exploring outside, we discovered this in the grass:
Not wanting to kill a potentially beautiful future butterfly, we left it alone. Do you know what is is? It's a hairy little thing!
Research reveals this is a tent caterpillar. In maturity, it turns into a nondescript moth - not a beautiful butterfly. And it attacks trees.
Oh, well...I guess no good deed goes unpunished :)
