To take a break from the cold weather I decided to look through my archive photographs captured in the fall of 2017 and choose this gorgeous Common Mormon butterfly and a photograph of a pink powder puff or Calliandra blossom at "The Butterfly Place" in Westford, Massachusetts and combined them for the public to enjoy. If you love butterflies like I do than you will have to visit this special indoor garden when you are in the New England area. Although smaller than "Magic Wings" it is still a beautiful indoor garden featuring butterflies from North, Central, South America and Asia.
Papilio polytes, the common Mormon butterfly is a common species of swallowtail butterfly widely distributed across Asia. This butterfly is known for the mimicry displayed by the numerous forms of its females which mimic inedible red-bodied swallowtails, such as the common rose and the crimson rose.
