I have a new butterfly house, but the butterflies don’t seem to care. I’m not sure where to put it (sun or shade). Also is there something you can put in it to attact them and not bees, etc?
Do butterfly cocoons “hatch” or is there a better, more scientifically correct word for when a butterfly emerges from its chrysalis? If there are multiple chrysalises, when they open, could one call it a “hatching” and not have butterfly experts laugh?
I believe in omen. From experience on quite a few occassions it is very accurate. But often it is after things have come to pass that I understand it’s meaning.
Some time ago on two separate occasion I saw butterfly entering my bedroom. The first time it is a completely green color butterfly. On the second time it is a completely black color butterfly. I want to know what is the meaning of butterfly entering my bedroom? I also want to know the meaning of the color green and black and to what areas of my life it is referring to?

I found a butterfly about a week ago. But i dont wanna let it go cause its so cold outside and im scared its going to die, When i found it it was almost dead. What should i do. I DONT WANT IT TO DIE!!!!!. I dont kno if this helps but we live in Tn. i have it in a 10gl tank with some leaves that i found and twigs. It seems to be doing pretty good but like what do they eat and stuff and how do they drink water? and one of its wings ripped

Here is an image of one. Does anyone have any more images of them that they could link to me? I would especially like to see a really close-up image of the glassy wing part.

Oh, my! The links are wonderful. Make sure you see the microscopic images posted by oooooolala!
I am delighted. I never even knew these beautiful gems existed. Isn’t life amazing like that? You think you’ve pretty much seen everything and then something most wonderful and new appears for the first time to you.
My daughter had a caterpillar inside a 2 liter soda bottle that we made for its home. It just came out of the chrysalis and is a butterfly, but my daughter is not home to see it. She will be home tomorrow night. My question is can I keep the butterfly in the bottle (the top half is cut off so the butterfly can be released) until tomorrow night or do I have to let it go now?
I want to know if there is a beautiful meaning to the tree nymph butterfly species in Asia, and is it common in the Philippines and Taiwan. On the other hand, I read online that having a butterfly in a person’s home in the Philippines represents death. Is there a way that a person in the Philippines and Taiwan enjoys the beauty of the creature?
The other day my dad saw a moth/ or butterfly that changed the pattern on it’s wings to blend in with it’s surroundings. Is this possible? Do you possibly know which moth or butterfly is capable of doing this?

I’m having a peaceful night’s rest and I turn to my side, then I enter the dream phase of my sleep cycle. Suddenly I’m walking through my mother’s garden and a butterfly zips across my field of vision. I chase it for a few seconds and watch as it comes to rest on a hibiscus flower. What is the degree of burden applied to the stalk of the hibiscus in terms of the mass of the butterfly in my dream?

I noticed a lot of females with butterfly tatoos. Why are those so popular with young ladies and what would be equivalent on the male side?Like what tattoos do young males have thats almost like females and their butterfly tattoos?
I have found out that i breathe at the wrong part in butterfly…i breathe when my arms are above my head instead of when my arms are reaching the surface, but i can’t seem to change my stroke…any ideas on how to train to make me breathe at the right point?
thanks!

I have a Black Knight Butterfly Bush that is about 1ft x 1ft right now. I know that its going to be about 8ft x 6ft. I bought 3 different varieties of Echinacea and 1 Butterfly weed.
The Echinacea will go behind the butterfly weed.
My question is What can I put around the butterfly bush that will grow taller than the Echinacea?
Would you put an ornamental grass near a butterfly bush? I plan on keeping the bush tailored for the area.

I have several handkerchiefs I wish to make into a handkerchief butterfly quilt for my mother-in-law, but the only pattern I’ve found is a basic butterfly. I would like to have several other folding patterns and cannot find anything. Can you help? Thanks!

I recently bought a robot butterfly in a jar and it’s battery-powered, but what causes the little sucker to jump around?
I surfed the web and didn’t get anywhere, not that i delved too deeply into the matter. Just wondering if anyone knows off-hand.
I was walking down the street the other day and out of nowhere, a butterfly flew up to me and landed on my nose. The butterfly stayed there for about 30 minutes. It was the middle of fall and I was wearing a plain grey sweater. Is there a deeper symbolic meaning to this?
I’ve been swimming for quite a while now, but nobody ever bothered to teach me how to swim butterfly. I want to compete in the 200yd IM next season, so I really want to learn now though. What are some tips and things to remember when learning?
Im doing a poem about butterflys for school and i need to no a noun that means butterfly! Thank you so much!

When I transplanted it, it was already brown and the branches were dead any advice to get it growing and alive, I’m in the process of making a butterfly garden and this bush will really complete the garden and make it look beautiful!!! and if you know of any other plants that attract a lot of butterflies let me know!
I am 19 weeks and although my butterfly sensations only started last week, I still have them and wonder when they start to become more defined. They did start off with bubbles as well – oh just felt that again lol, but it feels more like dozens of butterflies!
This is my first.
I want to get 2 small butterflies, does anyone know any good sites (free!), or just a great website with butterfly pictures?
Thank you in advance!
