I've watched you now a full half-hour;
Self-poised upon that yellow flower
And, little Butterfly! indeed
I know not if you sleep or feed.
How motionless!
Wordsworth - To A Butterfly (1801)
This year we will be studying the butterfly. A fascinating and delightful insect that we all love to spot in our gardens.
This minis set is a study of Laertes - the name comes from a figure in Greek mythology. First discovered in 1782 in Brasil, and a native of South America, this delicate little butterfly is a beauty.
