A butterfly is an insect that belongs to the order Lepidoptera, which includes moths as well. Butterflies have four wings covered in scales and a slender body. They come in a wide range of colors and patterns, with some species displaying vibrant hues, while others are more muted.
Butterflies undergo a complete metamorphosis, starting as an egg, hatching into a caterpillar, transforming into a chrysalis, and finally emerging as an adult butterfly. During the caterpillar stage, they feed voraciously on leaves, while adult butterflies primarily feed on nectar from flowers.
Butterflies play an essential role in pollination and are also a food source for birds and other animals. They are also widely appreciated for their beauty and grace and have been featured in art and literature for centuries.
