Magic Wings Photos

One of the other highlights of my trip was to the butterfly conservatory and gardens in S. Deerfield, MA called Magic Wings.

Here are some photos. I am sorry but I don't know the names of them.

Stunning. I love butterflies. That solid orange is gorgeous. Where did the name butterfly come from and is it true that butterflies only live for a day or two?

I believe that they said they live for about 2 weeks.

What is that in those glasses? Butterfly food or is that for show? Those are gorgeous pics, Pattie...and the ones you think of are monarchs, I believe.

This one was very hard to get. They told us that because of it's color it attracts predators so it rarely opens it's wings. It found this guy's shirt attractive so it stayed on his arm and away I snapped.

No, they are feeders but I don't know what is actually in them. Yes, I do think that those are monarchs.
