RE: Color Challenge :: Tuesday Orange :: Julia Butterfly
How do you know the Julia Butterfly is a “he”? I would have defaulted to “she” myself, but I suppose there must be both girl and boy Julia Butterflies. Okay now you’ve got me thinking about butterfly mating while I’m at work.
I kind of had this vicious butterfly fight storyline in my head, where our orange friend had to stand up and defend his lady from some preening monarch's unwanted advances, and there was a gloved slap across the face, and then a duel to the death, and that's how his wing got damaged.
Shall I anticipate that story as a future 50-word challenge post? 😄
Butterfly Battle Royale in 50 words? Yes. I like this.
Male birds tend to be more colorful and beautiful. I wonder does it apply to butterflies as well?
Thank goodness for Google! https://www.kidsbutterfly.org/faq/appearance/7
So this is a she then? :D
I was hoping you would be able to figure it out! 😊
I think we would have to see it next to another member of its species to compare!
