Description
This lovely Blue Morpho was photographed at the Franklin Park Conservatory, Columbus, Ohio.
The underside of the Blue Morpho butterfly has spots that resemble eyes. This characteristic allows the butterfly to blend in with its environment. The brown underside with the spots often times make people think that this side is a completely different butterfly, rather then the same butterfly as the iridescent blue side. That confusion it creates is a survival technique to stay unharmed from predators. They are one of the largest butterflies in the world, with a wingspan of between 5 to 8 inches.
This would be a beautiful and elegant art addition for your home or office. Also available in greeting cards, shower curtain, blanket, phone case, and other gift items!
Note: Watermark does NOT appear on purchased items.
