Butterfly - Butterflies - Insect
Butterflies are brightly colored flying insects with four wings that vary in color and pattern according to species, the wings are covered with tiny overlapping rows of scales.
Butterflies in their adult stage can live from a week to nearly a year depending on the species.
Butterflies feed primarily on nectar from flowers. Some also derive nourishment from pollen, tree sap, rotting fruit. Adult butterflies consume only liquids, ingested or sip water from damp patches for hydration and from which they obtain sugars for energy, and sodium and other minerals vital for reproduction. Several species of butterflies need more sodium than that provided by nectar and are attracted by sodium in salt; they sometimes land on people, attracted by the salt in human sweat.
Butterflies are important as pollinators for some species of plants although in general they do not carry as much pollen load as bees. They are however capable of moving pollen over greater distances.
Hope you enjoy!
