I found this to be a really interesting read. You learn a great deal of information in this small book. The author goes into great detail about butterflies and their habitats and behaviors. #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks

Loved this #NaturaLitsy selection on butterflies 🦋 I learned so much and found common ground with many of the butterfly enthusiasts featured in the book!
Pictured with our “pollinator meadow” which is difficult to see in the background but is buzzing with life! Continuing my efforts to provide space for butterflies and other insects which we now know run the world!
The tagged book is a readable and fascinating description of what we know about butterflies and what we're still learning. Did you know the proboscis is porous? That monarchs navigate using antennae?
On to the next book, a science fiction romp.

Our final chat about 🦋🦋🦋
Comments/reviews have been positive. I take it this was a winner. Did anyone not like it?
**Next up - Islands of abandonment starting Monday 5th June**
This was a wonderful read. Williams' colloquial style combined with the impressive depth of research made for an engaging blend of fun and fascination, beauty and science.

I love butterflies especially blue ones 🦋
Thanks to #NaturaLitsy, I picked up a book that I probably would not have. I‘m not a big nonfiction reader but I enjoyed learning about these beautiful 🦋🦋.
4/5
I learned so many things about butterflies, like their delicate and intricate lifecycles, the structure of their wings that creates their incredible colors, and the massive migrations monarchs make across North America.

I was inspired by the #naturalitsy pick, and got some Swamp Milkweek over the weekend to add to my little pollinator garden.

This was somewhere between a so-so and a pick for me! I love how much I learned about butterflies, but I waffled back and forth with the author's writing style. On the one hand, the conversational style made it a really fast read and her enthusiasm was great, but I sometimes found the style and all the asides a little distracting and off-putting. Overall, a good read, though!

I didn‘t know a whole lot about butterflies, but now know some interesting facts and a couple of mind blowing ones (structural color—wow!). Really interesting, accessible read with a gorgeous cover. #NaturaLitsy
Every month #NaturaLitsy brings a wonderful nonfiction nature book into my life and I‘m so glad!
Fascinating and fun to read, I really enjoyed this month‘s selection. Thanks for organizing @AllDebooks , looking forward to discussing on Saturday.
Finished our May #NaturaLitsy read last night. Very good. Accessible, engaging writing and I learned a ton about these fascinating insects.

Our last week with the butterflies. I shall be sad to finish this marvellous book, I'm learning so much! 🦋❤️🦋

Our new #Buddyread starts tomorrow. I've laid out the schedule for May only as it's not particularly long. If you'd rather stretch it out over June, let me know and I'll redo it. Just May will mean we can choose another book for June, whittle down that tbr stack!

Starting the language of butterflies today. #naturallitsy Decisions had to be made with the bagel. I only had a tablespoon of cream cheese. Guess I‘ll butter the rest and maybe if I put a book down I‘ll actually make a grocery list. 🤷♀️🤞
Today‘s train reading, brought to you by ‘I am never using this train company again‘. Ugh!
Afraid I‘m starting early on next month‘s #NaturalLitsy selection on audio, alternating with Bandit Queens for #Gladstonerds on Kobo.
Loving Bandit Queens, undecided on Butterflies yet, but the proportion of annoying people on this train-that-thinks-it‘s-a-plane (and not in a good way) mean audio is a necessity. But at least I have coffee.

I am posting one book per day from my to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new - don‘t judge me I have a lot of books.
Join the fun if you want. This is day 185.
