At my work they’ve got a butter­fly garden in a heated tent over the East­er holi­days. I popped in to take some pictures in my tea break earli­er this week. I don’t know what any of the species are, I don’t know much about butter­flies. They had a refer­ence board to compare the live ones to, but I didn’t have time to look closely.

They put all this mouldy fruit out for the butter­flies. They loved it, but the smell is pretty bad, espe­cially the oranges.

This butter­fly was my favour­ite. It looks like there’s an optic­al illu­sion of a smal­ler butter­fly on its back.
