Hello Hivers

Returning to insects, this time I will show you the beauty of a butterfly sunbathing in the afternoon, and here are some pictures



Danaus chrysippus is a species of insect that is widespread in Asia, Africa and Australia. Belongs to the Danainae family of the butterfly family Nymphalidae. Danaus chrysippus larvae primarily consume plants in the genus Asclepias, more commonly called milkweed (milk sap) such as thistle trees. Milkweed contains a toxic compound, cardenolides, which many butterflies frequently consume and harbor. Due to their emetic properties, the larvae of these animals are usually not very popular with most predators

As the name suggests, these butterflies are colored like tigers, and they often fly in groups, above are different butterflies and they are the same type of butterfly that I found in the same location too

In the afternoon, I often see this type of butterfly sunbathing on the lime tree in my backyard. They currently seem to be entering their mating season, because there are several butterfly larvae they leave behind.

Those are some pictures that I can share this time, thank you and see you again
