With their delicate and symmetrical wings, butterflies are the goodwill ambassadors of the insect kingdom. They don’t bite, sting or buzz, and most are colorful and easy to see. People associate these captivating insects with a beautiful summer’s day, and for good reason: Butterflies, flowers and sunshine just seem to go together. If you see a butterfly, chances are you’re in a pretty good place – a spot that is sunny and warm, with blossoming flowers nearby. Small wonder that butterflies might just be the world’s most popular bugs.
