Beautiful as a Butterfly

Beautiful as a Butterfly
Yes it is that time of the week where i must choose an animal to document about. This week the Phengaris arion has caught my attention, you may not recognise it's name and be more familiar with "Blue Butterfly." She was claimed extinct in the United Kingdom but recently they discovered that the butterfly's had just moved to hotter climate. These beautiful creatures started off as tiny little blue caterpillars and just like humans 9 moths later they from into lovely Butterfly's. They only live for 2 weeks after that but in that time they are expected to have 100 children, so if you do ever see one be sure to be very careful of her delicate wings and let them live a happy life, enjoy.
