The milkweed butterfly is one of the butterfly groups in the brush-footed butterfly family, Nymphalidae (order Lepidoptera). species in the tropics of the Old and New Worlds.
However, some well-known members such as the monarch butterfly and queen butterfly live in temperate climates.
The large, colorful ones have long, usually brown or orange wings marked with a black-and-white pattern. The first pair of legs are small and are not used for walking. They fly slowly and deliberately, like monarch butterflies, migrating long distances(wikipedia).
Butterflies are very tame, they are easy to get, because they only fly short distances, compared to other types of butterflies. Because he lives in the bushes, and the flowers of the grass or the weeds.
In addition, this milkweed butterfly also plays in garden areas or rice fields. I photographed it at exactly eleven o'clock in the morning while the flowers were still blooming beautifully, using my cell phone camera.
