Butterfly Sanctuary

When we went to Davao Crocodile park last weekend, part of the fee that we paid is the opportunity to visit Davao Butterfly Sanctuary, around 200 meters away from the crocodile park. I really learned a lot in there. In the exhibit area, there's a documentary that explains the butterfly, their way of life and their development. We were able to see a lot of butterflies of different colors and sizes. Here are photos...

Butterflies, mating, which could last from 5 - 30 minutes






The first time I saw a butterfly eating a dried banana fruit



Happy weekend friends!

  1. Napakaganda nang post mo na ito Sam. As usual, very informative at educational. Hindi pa ako nakapunta sa isang butterfly farm. Maganda siguro ang eksperiensiya. Nakakatuwang isipin na napakahaba pala nang mating time nang mga butterflies. Yung mga ibang hayop ay seconds lang, lol. Marami ngang matututunan sa mga ganyang farms katulad din nang crocodile farm. Hindi na kasi ako masyadong nakakagala dahil sa sakit at sa pagaasikaso ko sa mga bata. Nasa States kasi ang misis ko for about 3 1/2 years na at ako ang tumatayong tatay at nanay nang mga anak ko, lol. Thanks for the valuable post. God bless you all always.
