In my previous post I have promised to post about when you will be able to meet so tame butterflies. Here is what I have been experienced.
The first time I photographed butterflies with very little knowledge about these creatures and I had been very tired of having to run here and there where they were circling endlessly around the flowers and foliage. The result is very disappointing! most of the photos look blurry ! but I will never give up from this failure.
Why butterflies could be more tame and don’t fly agile as it should be
*
I started reading many articles and books about butterfly which I considered very helpful to gain knowledge about their habits in nature. There are also a lot of articles telling us about How to photograph them in various versions. However not necessary to memorize names and its species unless if we are going to be a real Naturalist !
*
One of the factors that greatly affect the lives of butterflies are temperature and humidity. As I have read, butterfly is cold-blooded. When the weather is cold, either because of the rain or wet weather, butterflies roost in the bushes and grasses or in the trees, depending on the species.
*
Being cold-blooded, it becomes necessary for them to get warm with the help of their flight muscles. They achieve this by basking under the sun, so that they can absorb the sun ray.
*
Without warmth they can not fly
*
and on misty weather or on overcast don’t fly agile as it should be
*
Butterfly sounds derived from Butter-like Fly
*
The butterfly becomes a symbol of longevity. It also represents young men in love
*
So many meanings such as in cultural myth honors the butterfly as a symbol of transformation because of its impressive process of metamorphosis – From egg, to larvae (caterpillar), to pupa (cocoon) and from the cocoon the butterfly emerges in its unfurling glory.

Dalam posting saya sebelumnya saya telah berjanji untuk mem-post tentang kapan Anda bisa bertemu dengan kupu-kupu yang begitu jinak. Berikut adalah apa yang saya telah alami.Pertama kali saya memotret kupu-kupu dengan pengetahuan yang sangat sedikit tentang makhluk cantik ini dan saya sudah sangat lelah karena harus berlari kesana-kemari di mana mereka berputar-putar tanpa henti di sekitar bunga dan dedaunan. Hasilnya sangat mengecewakan! sebagian besar foto terlihat buram! tapi saya tidak akan pernah menyerah dari kegagalan ini.Mengapa kupu-kupu bisa lebih jinak dan tidak terbang lincah sebagaimana mestinyaSaya mulai membaca banyak artikel dan buku-buku tentang kupu-kupu yang saya anggap sangat membantu untuk mendapatkan pengetahuan tentang kebiasaan mereka di alam. Ada juga banyak artikel memberitahu kita tentang Cara memfoto mereka dalam berbagai versi. Namun demikian tidak perlu menghafal nama dan jenisnya kecuali jika kita akan menjadi seorang Naturalist sejati!Salah satu faktor yang sangat mempengaruhi kehidupan kupu-kupu adalah suhu dan kelembaban. Seperti yang saya telah baca, kupu-kupu berdarah dingin. Ketika cuaca dingin, baik karena hujan atau cuaca basah, kupu-kupu bertengger di semak-semak dan rerumputan atau di pohon-pohon, tergantung pada spesies.Sebagai hewan berdarah dingin, menjadi penting bagi mereka untuk mendapatkan kehangatan untuk membantu otot penerbangan mereka. Mereka mendapatkan ini dengan berjemur di bawah matahari, sehingga mereka dapat menyerap sinar matahari.Tanpa kehangatan mereka tidak bisa terbang dan cuaca berkabut atau mendung mereka tidak dapat terbang lincah sebagaimana mestinya

Thank you for the beautiful post. in reading what you wrote and in looking at your photos I learned things that I did not know about butterflies. I am studying the Western Scrub Jay in Ashland, OR, USA. I have been taking notes and studying online about their behavior. I have been feeding them and one jay comes within an inch of my hand to take peanuts. It has taken me an entire year of patience in waiting for this experience.
Your photography is beautiful.
Many blessings!

As I noticed, not all butterflies like flowers. Many kinds of them just feed from the dews on the leaves or water from run off. The secret is a patient. Stay closely to where it perched, it will be back in few minutes. mostly fly away and return to the same place 5 – 20 times a day. certain butterflies feed perching on with still and spread it wings, others close them and or by keep flicking over the flowers. Amazing, isn’t it ? Early morning is best time (I can say sluggish hours), mid day very agile and 10am – 15 pm matting time too (when they found the couple). You don’t need to run around chasing them anymore. 😉
