    Butterflies captivate me with their delicate wings, vibrant colors, and graceful flight.

    Monarch Butterflies are my favorite and I just love how beautiful they are. Because I saw one on one of my walks and it was so beautiful, and people are always saying don’t look at their eyes but there eyes are so magnificent. I was so star struck that I had to take a picture. One of my favorite moments of 2024.

    I agree with Sundancer. We should seriously have a dance class. Also, I really like how Pajet had a butterfly on her shoulder in the video and how she got to set one out on its first flight. I also think it would be very interesting to have a butterfly class.

    Glasswing butterflies are my ultimate favorite!- It’s because they are the most unique I’ve ever seen. They are NOT normal. Even though you cannot see any veins, their wings are see-through!!! That’s why I favor them.

    I had a project where I grew my own butterflies, they were catterpillars first and then became cacoons and then butterflies. It was amazing to see this cycle. I released them after to the nature.

    I went to a butterfly botanical garden in Colombia (Calarca, Quindio, website-jardinbotanicoquindio.org) and the butterfly house is the shape of a butterfly as well. There were hundreds if not thousands of butterflies everywhere. So many different kinds in size, and in colors. They would land on your head, face, hands so delicately. It was really magical.

Like a zoology or veterinary class, talking about animals act, what they feed on, where they live, and how many species there are. Also with really cool facts like how koalas have TWO thumbs!

    The monarch butterfly, with its majestic wings and regal presence, reigns supreme in the world of fluttering beauties. It’s not just a butterfly; it’s a winged work of art, a sky-bound traveler, and a symbol of transformation. These orange-and-black wonders make the most epic journey, putting even the most seasoned globetrotters to shame. So, if you’re ever feeling wanderlust, just remember: the monarch butterfly has got you beat, migrating thousands of miles with nothing but the power of its delicate wings and a built-in GPS that puts your smartphone to shame.
