On our recent trip to Anton Valley we visited a butterfly place. I don’t remember the number of different types of butterflies there are in Panama, but it is lots. They are so pretty, and colourful. Just getting there was a beautiful walk too.
This young man had a lot of information to share, from showing us eggs on a leaf, to caterpillars, chrysalis, and the eggs covered in mesh bags for protection from predators.
The butterflies above that were brown when their wings were closed, and bright blue when opened, were very hard to catch the blue color as they were moving targets.
At the door on the way out there was a full length mirror to check yourself, to make sure no butterflies were escaping. A good plan.
Another enjoyable couple of hours in Anton Valley. Educational too.
Cheers
