The Monarch #butterfly embarks on one of nature's most incredible journeys, migrating up to 3,000 miles from #Canada to central #Mexico. These tiny travelers, with wings of vibrant orange, navigate the vast distances using the sun and Earth’s magnetic fields, defying the odds

It's a #butterfly day! 😍🤩🎉🦋 Overcast but very warm, so my sons met me for a butterfly wander after work. Delighted to be the warm landing spot for this stunning peacock! What a beauty 🥰 #Lancashire @savebutterflies.bsky.social #vitaminN

Look at this amazing sign. #NoKings #butterfly

First common blue #butterfly of the year and it’s a corker 😍🦋💛

I just caught this beauty having a snack on our climbing rose bush. #Butterfly #Rose #FlowerReport #BloomScrolling #Swallowtail #AZ #Prescott #EastCoastKin #Spring #Easter

Well, this was a real treat this afternoon as I found this Periplacis menander #butterfly outside my kitchen window. A new species for @casabentbill.bsky.social (and for me). These have a wide range from Mexico to southern Brazil, but they aren't common. #lepidoptera #costarica #butterflies #bugsky

A glasswing butterfly alights on a heliopsis, Mindo rainforest, Ecuador, Dec 2021. Glasswings look fragile but they can carry up to 40 times their own weight #glasswing #butterfly #inaturalist #ecuador #rainforest #mindo #insects #heliopsis #southamerica #wildlife #jungle #naturephotography #nature

My first Green-veined White of the year. This one posed beautifully for photos & enjoyed warming up on my hand #butterfly

Dozens of Black-Veined White butterflies (Aporia crataeai) swarm a kayak by the Vagran River in the Ural Mountains of Russia. 🦋 The butterflies are attracted to the salt from human sweat on the kayaker's gear and clothing. This happens in early summer when these butterflies emerge. #butterfly

Red Admiral. Superb photo of this European and Asian butterfly taken by Ian Kelsall in the UK. #RedAdmiral #butterfly #savebutterflies #nature #butterflies #insects #pollinators #BigButterflyCount #bsky
