Sold by Mighty Ape
This big,
beautiful butterfly has won people’s hearts the world over.
The way a
single specimen teeters on the merest of leaf-ends to place its egg, how the
hatchling caterpillar doggedly demolishes its host-plant, how later it quivers
and folds itself up inside a glittering jewel-casing that appears by magic
before our very eyes . . . And then the emergence of a completely transformed
winged creature, a creature of stunning saturated hues, a creature that floats
and lurches mid-air . . . Causing us to hold our breath, hold the moment.
