Butterflies: proof that going through a phase isn't always a bad thing.
One minute you're a leaf-munching worm, next thing you know-you're flying runway-ready with wings!

No bees = no pizza, no coffee, no fun. 🐝 Pollination may look like a snack break, but it keeps 75% of flowering plants (and 1/3 of our food) alive.

Butterflies = solar-powered colour machines.
Caterpillars are pro leaf-eaters turned metamorphosis magicians. Males? Tiny drama kings chasing anything that moves—even birds 50x bigger. Small wings, huge attitude.

Meet the European paper wasp: master architect, aerial acrobat, and floral connoisseur.
She crafts her nest from chewed wood pulp (yes, insect paper mâché), can recognize faces, and is generally pretty chill.

HELP US SAVE THESE BEAUTIFUL POLLINATORS!! #PlantMilkweed!! I raise #monarchs -they have a 99% mortality rate in the wild. I keep them in cages in a tent outside and simply protect the caterpillars from predators and feed them adequate supplies of #milkweed and release them. I even tag some.
