The Beautiful Butterfly House
The Beautiful and colourful butterflies filmed at the Seal Sanctuary's Butterfly House
in Skegness, Lincolnshire UK.
Watching the butterflies is a real pleasure, and I can just sit for hours and observe these colourful creatures, as the flutter joyfully around the glass house!
Butterflies (Rhopalocera) are insects that have large, often brightly coloured wings, and a conspicuous, fluttering flight. The group comprises the superfamilies Hedyloidea (moth-butterflies in the Americas) and Papilionoidea. Butterfly fossils date to the Paleocene, about 56 million years ago.
Butterflies have a four-stage life cycle, as like most insects they undergo complete metamorphosis. Winged adults lay eggs on the food plant on which their larvae, known as caterpillars, will feed.
The caterpillars grow, sometimes very rapidly, and when fully developed, pupate in a chrysalis.
When metamorphosis is complete, the pupal skin splits, the adult insect climbs out, and after its wings have expanded and dried, it flies off. Some butterflies, especially in the tropics, have several generations in a year, while others have a single generation, and a few in cold locations may take several years to pass through their entire life cycle.
