I wanted to do fall colors for this NOVEMBER swap
so I typed in fall butterfly
& this beauty caught my eye ;-) ლ
At first I thought it was a Peacock Butterfly because it is very similar ;-)
But this is found in the southern US
where I am!!! ;-)
Common Buckeye (Junonia coenia) butterflies are only a couple of inches across, but their eyespots can make them look much bigger to predators.
This beautiful butterfly belongs to the Nymphalidae family. It is mostly found in Southern parts of the United States. They usually live in areas of low vegetation. They have white bars on the upper wing surface with 6 prominently visible eyespots. They have a very unique and distinctive feeding pattern as they live on mud fluid and damp sand.
Hope you enjoy these fall colors & Butterflies ;-)
The Richmond birdwing, is a species of birdwing butterfly that is endemic to Australia. It is the second smallest of the birdwing species
Sapho Longwing
Native to:
Central America to Ecuador
Plant Association:
Larvae feed primarily on plants from the Passiflora family.
Interesting Fact:
It is a Müllerian mimic with Heliconius cydno, meaning both species have evolved to look like one another in order to avoid predators that may prey on the opposite butterfly.
Battus polydamas antiquus is an extinct subspecies of the polydamas swallowtail within the family Papilionidae. It is only known by a drawing from 1770 by British entomologist Dru Drury. It was endemic to Antigua.
Patience is to endure discomfort without complaint.
What patience means to me is being able to wait while having a good attitude and not getting irritated.
There are many things in life that you need to have patience for: patience for your children, patience when you need to wait on exam grades in school and many other things as well.
Now I will explain how this scripture applies to my life. One of the most important things that you need to have patience for is waiting upon the Lord after prayer. It all depends on His timing, not ours and we must have plenty of patience. I know that this sometimes isn't an easy thing to do; however with plenty of pray it will become easier.
I hope you like the butterflies that I've chosen for you this month.
First, I will be sharing with you a small butterfly called the Pearl Crescent Butterfly.
The Pearl Crescent is one of the most common and widespread butterflies in the eastern United States. It is also one of the hardest butterflies to identify with certainty, because of two very similar butterflies, the Northern and Tawny Crescents. The Northern Crescent was only separated from the Pearl Crescent in the last 25 years, and therefore distribution maps where these two overlap are somewhat suspect.
Habitat: Woodland edges, roadsides, and open fields.
Flight: Two broods. The first brood is found from early May through early July, and then a second brood is present in August through mid September.
Abundance: Common throughout southern Wisconsin. Most often noticed along gravel or dirt trails in open areas.
The next butterfly that I will be sharing with you is the Giant Swallowtail.
Wing Span: 4 - 6 1/4 inches (10.2 - 16 cm).
Flight: Two in the north from May-September; all year in Florida and the Deep South.
Habitat: Many locales including rocky and sandy hillsides near streams or gullies in the north; pine flats, towns, and citrus groves in the south.
Range: Throughout eastern North America west to the Rocky Mountains, south through the desert Southwest to South America. A rare stray to Quebec, North Dakota, and Bermuda.
The final butterfly that I will be sharing with you is the Night Butterfly. This is a very rare and strange looking butterfly.
I couldn't find any information about it but I did think it was a very strange looking butterfly.
I hope you enjoyed learning about these "Somewhat Different Butterflies"!
