Butterfly Garden

To attract various species of butterflies, a variety of plant species have been planted at this place. The best way to observe them without causing any harm is to inspect them carefully. Each species of butterfly feeds on specific plant species. The planting of such plants has been done here. Butterflies come in search of these plants and lay their tiny eggs on these plants. After the transformation of these eggs, they become caterpillars. Here, the caterpillars find plenty of fresh leaves to eat. Some caterpillars blend in so well with the surrounding colors that their predators cannot easily spot them. Some caterpillars have bright colors as a warning to predators. They are considered poisonous because no bird or other predator eats them. These caterpillars then enter the pupal stage by shedding their skin. Beautiful butterflies emerge from these pupae.
