Some tropical Butterflies

Post by Beetleman »

Took the family to a place called Magic Wings http://www.magicwings.com/index.php to see the butterflies. Very nice place, clean, lots of butterflies and insects, plants that attract butterflies for sale. I highly recommend you see it if you are in the area (NH, MA, RI, CT). Here are a few pictures from the trip. First one is the Indian Leaf Butterfly (Kallima Paralekta) from Asia. The second one is The Brown Clipper (Parthenos sylvia) also from Asia
