So the race is on again. This is one that we have inside raising in tanks this season. So far we are managing to beat the green ants to them.

The one in this photo is not far off its next stage of life and is about the size of my thumb. It has been inside around eight days and was only just over a centimeter in length.

At this stage they are just eating machines so we are pleased we have lots of vine we can harvest.

So far there have been several females laying on the vines, already lots more than last season.

I hope to be able to do a photo of each stage of life.

 

Please share. :)

 

Cairns Birdwing. Ornithoptera euphorion

 

Both sexes support their weight when feeding at flowers by rapidly fluttering their wings. Males occasionally compete for flowers with other nectarivores, such as small birds, and usually succeed at driving them off by aggressively flying towards them.

They have a rather short life span as a butterfly only lasting four to five weeks.

Australia's largest endemic butterfly species. The wingspan can be up to 15 cm (5.9 in) in females, and 12.5 cm (4.9 in) in males.

There was a spectacular and rare genetic mutation of this butterfly, where single aberrant female produced less than 40 aberrant progeny. The females were pale instead of dark, and the males were golden instead of green.

Can you spot an alien-like #spider camouflaged & compacted perfectly with tree trunk, ready for its next kill.

 

Two long #spinnerets at rear give him the name #TwoTailedSpider

 

Like Bird in flight,

I like butterfly in flight more than portrait click
