Butterfly Painted Lady (Vanessa Cardui)

unlonely-soulPosted for Everyone to comment on, 4 years ago

Everyone has seen this butterfly. But many of you had no idea: to get into the lens of your camera, this particular butterfly may have crossed 5000 km.

This butterfly is beautiful and ordinary at the same time. She also has the gift of divination - she knows perfectly well when it will rain. For 2 hours before precipitation, it is already hiding in the shelter, hanging somewhere on the roof of the shed upside down.

This butterfly is called a Painted Lady - is one of the most popular in the world. It is able to live at an altitude of 2500-3000 m. It breeds its Offspring both in the steppes and in the tundra, but it can winter only in the South. That's why it is constantly traveling, and we can admire this beautiful creation of nature.
