This weekend I went down to Coconut Creek and had the pleasure of going to Butterfly World. From the moment I entered the park, I was able to see the entire life cycle of the butterflies. From there on I had the privilege of walking through 4 aviaries to see more butterflies then I have ever seen before.

Each time I took a step, there was a different butterfly flying by me and being so close that I could see every detail on their wings. Every time I went to take a photo of a butterfly, they became bigger and more beautiful. This was one of the most unique experiences to be surrounded by more then 1,000 butterflies, under a beautiful aviary with a habitat unlike no other.
Butterfly World is the biggest butterfly garden in the world and the only one of its kind in the western hemisphere. In the park there is a research building and laboratory dedicated to studying the life of the butterfly. Each butterfly is different by size, color, and wing span. Butterflies rely on caterpillar food plants to live off of. The female butterflies are attracted to the smell of the plants and this is where they lay their eggs.
