I am not sure who the photographer was today, but these sure are MAGIC shots!  Was it Michaela?

    I like how you take pictures every day and put some of them onto your blog and I like that you put heaps of different photos on your blog. You should find out who took the photos so that everyone knows who it was. But all of the photos that you take are very fascinating especially the ones with the butterflies in because they are up close so you can see all of the detail of the butterfly.

    I think that it is great that you are learning about butterflies and watching them come out of chrysalis's and drying themselves out. I did that at my primary school and it must have hatched out at night because we found it flying around our classroom in the morning. Then we set it free but it stayed at our school and lived on our swan plant.

    I think that it would be a lot of fun to watch a butterfly hatch out of its chrysalis; I never knew that they came out wet!
    What was your favourite part about looking after the butterflies?
    Do you know that butterflies can see ultraviolet light (light invisible to the human eye) which makes the markings on the flowers very vivid to them and guides them to the nectar tubes.

    Butterflies are pretty cool to watch come out of their chrysalises aren't they. We get to see a lot of butterflies in New Zealand. There were heaps at home once and we got to watch two of them at the same time.
    I think the photographer took nice photos, too. It was pretty awesome how you managaed to take a photo of the butterflies on the flower.

    Wow! Im sure it was amazing, seeing a butterfly come out of its chrysalis is a really nice thing to see. When I was little we had some chrysalis’ form on our cabinet, but when the butterfly’s emerged one was missing part of its wing, and it was all crumpled, so we kept it. Sadly it lasted for only three days. I sometimes make butterflies a honey liquid, its honey with water, they like that.

  6. Hello Room 6

    Those sure are magic shots. It is amazing that caterpillars can turn into such beautiful things. At my old school we had a plant that the butterflies would lay their eggs on and we would watch the caterpillars go into a chrysalis and then into butterflies. It was really awesome to watch.

  7. Hi Room 6

    I love those pictures, they really show what a butterfly looks like. I have always wanted to be a photographer, because I always take photos. I love butterflies because the patterns on their wings are so fascinating. Did you know that when you touch a butterfly’s wing it destroys the pattern on the wing.

  8. Thanks to Taradale Intermediate students for your awesome comments!
    It was Michaela who took two of the butterfly photos. The first two were Mrs K before school.

  9. I sure do miss having our monarch butterflies. I know they will be safe in the world somewhere.
