    Everything is OK except you need to add the name of the butterfly.

    hi Irene! Welcome here and thanks for your comments. The name of the second one is on the link actually underneath the image, – which is Adonis Blue – but, my whole idea is that people would be curious enough to follow those links and to see more wonderful butterflies and not only these beautiful blue butterflies. 🙂

    I was lookin 4 a picture of a blue butterfly to get a tattoo and seen my name as the artist it felt like fate???

    hi Nikkita
    Welcome to my blog!

    I’m sorry, I don’t see your name as the artist- which image are you referring to? If you refer to the top image, then the name “nikita” is not the artist, but my blogname/blogwriter. What you see in this post, is also photos of real butterflies and not done by “artists”.

    hi Onipresente… No, I haven’t seen them in real life.

    just love them butterflies


    • on 28/01/2010 at 22:40 Nikita

      Me too! 🙂

    Hi! I love butterflies too. Who doesn’t … really. There’s a children’s book author that has that very type of blue butterfly in his book. He has to love butterflies too. The book isn’t out yet but you can see the ebook here:

    http://www.olivercow.com/Flower_Moon_by_ERIC_STOCK.pdf

    He’s got tigertails and monarchs. I think the blue one is on page 9 of the pdf

    What type of butterfly is it?


  16. on 14/02/2010 at 22:40 Nikita

    Hi Mary, Thanks so much for the link of the beautiful story! I’m not sure about the blue butterfly you’re referring to, it almost looks like the blue morpho…but not 100%. I’m sure the author likes butterflies as there are many of them in this story.

    i love butterflies. i had a poem on this, though it is political


  18. on 16/05/2010 at 10:18 Nikita

    hi Hames! Butterflies are special and fulnerable and they also show us how perfect God’s creation is in every way. I think if you write a poem about butterflies, it should be a perfect poem, a poem that tells the truth in every way, even if it is political. Why don’t you paste your poem here for us? 🙂

  21. on 03/08/2010 at 10:57 Nikita

    hi Rishika, Welcome to my blog and thanks for dropping a message. Yes, they are amazing these butterflies, beautiful – the blue! – as the other colours too.
