Butterflies In Flight

Earth's a planet of beauty and wonder, hosting unique creatures, both big and small. But butterflies are hailed among Nature's masterpieces, as living works of art. Caterpillars morph into butterflies through the rebirth of metamorphosis. And winged, phantasmagorical creatures, of all colors of the rainbow, take flight. Delicate silver and gold filigree intricately gilds iridescent wings. And purples, blues, greens, and countless colors, create abstract art caught in the sunlight. Mother Nature's a natural artist, who takes her art to another level. And, as a testament to her talent, butterflies are uniquely breathtaking.
