One of the butterflies prevalent in the State of Pennsylvania (where I live) is the Metalmark or Riodinidae
The Northern Metalmark, or Calephelis borealis, Ranges from Western Connecticut south through west-central Pennsylvania; central Appalachians and Ohio River Valley. Isolated populations in southwest Missouri and eastern Oklahoma. Adults may rest upside down beneath leaves. Males perch on leaves to seek females. Eggs are laid on the underside of host plant leaves, which the caterpillars eat. Half-grown caterpillars hibernate in leaf litter.
Swallowtail butterflies are large, colorful butterflies in the family Papilionidae, and include over 550 species. Though the majority are tropical, members of the family inhabit every continent except Antarctica.

Did you know there are butterfly farmers all over the world? Some butterflies are raised for mass release at special events like weddings. Others, to help conserve the species. But once released, all butterflies join the wild population and help increase the numbers.
The Painted Lady is a popular butterfly for farming.
Research has revealed that the Panted Lady makes an epic intergenerational journey each year spanning thousands of miles from Africa to the Arctic and back again. Much like our beloved Monarchs.

I picked a beautiful butterfly I have learned about here in the BUTTERFLY LOVERS GROUP thru the pictures in a bingo game ;-)
The butterfly's most common English name is glasswinged butterfly, and its Spanish name is "mariposa de cristal", which means "crystal butterfly". The tissue between the veins of its wings looks like glass, as it lacks the colored scales found in other butterflies. HERE IS A LINK WITH MANY MORE BEAUTIFUL PICTURES

One of my favorite things I like grilled – Delmonico Steak
This is the type of grill I have. Really easy for clean up
This is the grill I would love to have – if I win the lottery – or if one of you would like to send it along in a swap! LOL
The item I like grilled the best
