Swallowtail butterfly.

in WE ARE MOVING3 years ago

Hello friends of this community.

I wanted to share with you a beautiful visit I had at home this morning, and that made my day, to tell you the truth, I had never seen such a butterfly in my life, so I immediately captured some pictures to share with my friends.

Right now, there are some species of butterflies that are reproducing, and therefore, coming out of their cocoons, but it is common to see the orange butterflies with a few black spots, which we know here, and worldwide as the Monarch butterfly.


Most of these colorful butterflies belong to the Papilionidae family, which among its characteristics, there are more than 550 species.

Mostly tropical, all of these beautiful butterflies are considered one of the largest in the world, along with the birdwing butterflies.

I was reading some information regarding the defensive system of butterflies, Wait, defensive system?!

Yes, there is a small hidden tail that in case of danger, it has in its tail a device that inflates and fills with liquid in order to protect itself from animals, I would have liked to see it, but I was a little afraid to even touch it.

I didn't even bother her, I just took some pictures, and she posed, and then she said goodbye quietly. I think all species are intelligent, maybe this little one just wanted to show off her beauty, and she did it!

At home we were all happy and surprised to see her. I hope you too have had a great time, and that you can find species like these.
