Fly with Butterfly



Fly with Butterfly


Butterflies are found all over the world and in all types of environments: hot and cold, dry and moist, at sea level and high in the mountains. Most butterfly species, however, are found in steamy areas, especially tropical rainforests.

Adult butterflies are wonderfully varied in shape, size. They live almost everywhere around the world.

Most of butterfly brightly colored or strikingly patterned. Distinctive features are club-tipped antennae and a habit of holding the wings vertically over the back when at rest. Butterflies are classified into five or six families. It is easy to watch and enjoy hundreds of native and tropical butterflies year-round in Flower Garden.

The Red-spotted Purple will visit a variety of flowers but they prefer tree sap and rotting fruits. To increase the probability of seeing this butterfly put out a dish of fruit, but keep in mind the fruit will also attract bees, wasps, ants and flies. Be sure to look for this dramatic butterfly before they are gone for the season, in the last few weeks of summer.

Butterflies are beautiful, flying insects with large scaly wings. Like all insects, they have a pair of antennae, six jointed legs, 3 body parts, compound eyes, and a skeleton. The butterfly's body is covered by small sensory hairs. The four wings and the six legs of the butterfly are attached to the thorax. The thorax contains the muscles that make the legs and wings move.
Butterflies are very good fliers. They have two pairs of large wings covered with colorful, shining scales in overlapping rows. Butterflies and moths are the only insects that have scaly wings.
The fastest butterflies can fly at about 30 mile per hour or faster. Slow flying butterflies fly about 5 mile per hour.
Imagine about butterfly and think you also flying on sky.
