This is one butterfly that is a truly amazing colour. I can't get over the blue!
The Ulysses Butterfly is found in tropical rainforsets. It is a large swallowtail butterfly and is blue and black in colour. It may commonly be known as the Blue Mountain Butterfly.
These butterflies feed on nectar from flowers and at the same time pollinate them. Their wingspan is quite large at around 14cm.
Butterfly quote for today: "Metamorphosis has always been the greatest symbol of change for poets and artists. Imagine that you could be a caterpillar one moment and a butterfly the next." – Louie Schwartzberg
