I have always loved butterflies and their individual beauty.I had no idea that they were a dwindling species. Until my husband and I visited Phoenix Arizona. We took a day trip to a place called Butterfly Wonderland http://www.butterflywonderland.com,
What a great place to visit.
The tour started with a 3D movie about the flight of the butterfly. The 3D animation was fabulous. I hate to admit it but I was roped in. I was like a child seeing her first movie in the Cinema.The movie was very informative and visually beautiful. I felt like I was flying with the butterfly through it’s miraculous journey. The next part of the tour was the indoor butterfly garden,Every butterfly you could imagine. What a wonderful sight.
Butterflies are like most animals or insects, In the warmer months they search far and wide for their mate in all the 50 states. They decide to settle in for a short visit lay their eggs and off they go to Mexico, leaving the colder more brutal months behind. In Mexico all the species gather together on the vast trees in unity. Unfortunately the warm tropical countries are being swallowed up by construction and the butterflies safe havens are being destroyed. But every year their survival is in danger.
So this year I was inspired to plant a butterfly garden to help the species survive. It’s been worth it. I am addicted and drawn to the garden. Every morning when I get up I sit and watch which butterfly species has visited
