“Bluebottle butterfly”
From spring to summer, you will meet the bluebottle in various place. In the city, in the field and on the beach. The bluebottle appears in places with camphor trees in order to lay eggs. They suck the nectar of various flowers. You can see them to extend their proboscises into the water on the ground and the beach. [JULY 2021]
Graphium sarpedon
春から夏にかけて、野でも街でもよく出会う、アオスジアゲハ。クスノキに卵を産み付け、都市部でも街路樹から孵った個体をよく見かけます。波風に逆らいながら、海岸の地面で口吻を伸ばしている姿も見かけます。
