    Butterfly

    Butterflies range in size from a tiny 1/8 inch to a huge almost 12 inches.
    Butterflies can see red, green, and yellow.
    Some people say that when the black bands on the Woolybear caterpillar are wide, a cold winter is coming.
    The top butterfly flight speed is 12 miles per hour. Some moths can fly 25 miles per hour!
    Monarch butterflies journey from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, a distance of about 2,000 miles, and return to the north again in the spring.
    Butterflies cannot fly if their body temperature is less than 86 degrees.
    Representations of butterflies are seen in Egyptian frescoes at Thebes, which are 3,500 years old.
    The Brimstone butterfly (Gonepterix rhamni) has the longest lifetime of the adult butterflies: 9-10 months.
    Some Case Moth caterpillars (Psychidae) build a case around themselves that they always carry with them. It is made of silk and pieces of plants or soil.
    Many insects can carry 50 times their own body weight. This would be like an adult person lifting two heavy cars full of people.
    Butterflies and insects have their skeletons on the outside of their bodies, called the exoskeleton. This protects the insect and keeps water inside their bodies so they don’t dry out.
    Many insects can carry 50 times their own body weight. This would be like an adult person lifting two heavy cars full of people.

    Butterflies are so beautiful. We have these little purplish color ones that play around the car. I love to watch them. Smile
