Butterfly
Insects in Clear Acrylic Frames |

Compared to all other insects, none elicit
more pleasure and spur curiosity better than
butterflies. Butterfly insects are truly one of
natures most beautiful gifts, appreciated
by all who encounter them. This is why when
you are considering a gift for that special someone
choose acrylic frame butterflies and rest assured
they'll love it. Choose from an impressive array
of mounted butterflies
in acrylic or black frames including every imaginable
magnificent display of mixed butterfly species.
Remember frame will come with its own unique
mixture of butterflies.
Each year more than ten North American butterfly species migrate Northward starting
early in the spring to about midsummer and then their migrations turn Southward
from late summer to the fall. With the conspicuous exception of Monarchs, the
annual migrations for most of the migratory butterfly species goes largely unnoticed.
Occasionally migratory species, such as the Painted Lady butterflies in California,
will achieve such a spectacular level of abundance that they swarm even the freeways
and cannot be ignored as they gather in the tens of thousands! Just as soon as
their numbers decline to normal levels, public interest almost entirely evaporates
and no further notice is taken until the next outbreak of beautiful butterflies.
Yet, for those who watch them carefully, butterflies are always out there, steadily
making there way through the air, as the seasons dictate. |

| One of the most interesting things about
butterflies is how some species migrate as
part of their natural survival pattern. Many
butterflies migrate to avoid adverse environmental
conditions, like cold weather. Butterfly
migrations are not as well understood as
we'd like to think. However, most migrate
relatively short distances (Examples: the
Painted Lady, the Red Admiral, and the Common
Buckeye), but few (like Monarchs) migrate
over 2,000 miles in a year. Due to the average
butterfly's inability to fight strong winds,
their migratory patterns are usually not
as concentrated as those of birds, but on
the rare occasions that it occurs its every
bit as amazing and dramatic a spectacle as
the annual migrations of birds. After all
of this traveling the only thing an adult
butterfly has time to do, besides flying,
is reproduce. |
