What is a Butterfly?

A butterfly is a beautiful flying insect that starts life as a tiny egg, then turns into a caterpillar, and finally transforms into a winged wonder. Butterflies have soft, scaly wings that come in many colorful patterns, and they flutter gently through gardens, forests, and fields. Most butterflies live only a few weeks, but some, like the monarch, can live up to 8 months. They use their long, straw-like mouth to sip nectar from flowers, and they rest during the night. Butterflies don’t make loud sounds, but the flapping of their wings sometimes makes a gentle whisper. These delicate creatures help plants grow by spreading pollen and are a sign of a healthy environment.
