LEARN ABOUT BUTTERFLIES 2020

Saturday, March 14 is Learn About Butterflies Day. As I am sure you are aware, I really enjoy butterflies and post quite a bit about them. To celebrate Learn About Butterflies day, here are some basics. Lepidoptera is an order of insects that include butterflies, moths, and skippers. All three of these types have six legs, two antennae, and four wings. They are insects with scales over their bodies and wings. They all have four stages of life. First is the egg stage, second is the larvae or caterpillar stage, third is pupa, and fourth is the adult stage. Here are some photos I published in previous posts.
