Okay, so there isn't really any such animal as Lycaena houdinii, but I found this butterfly's escape routine pretty fascinating. I saw many of its kin throughout the canyon, but I've never seen one emerging from its coccoon. Its thrashing motions reminded me of old film reels of Harry Houdini as he escaped from a straight-jacket while suspended by his feet. I would have stayed to watch the whole show but it was pretty hot out there and I needed to move on.
