Amazing Find Today




 Today on our walk we have  found a tree and it had about 100 butterflies on the one tree.  We were trying to take photos of them but they would just fly away so we just took a video of the tree and the butterflies flying around. Me and my sisters were trying to catch them but we could not catch them they were to fast. We were then wondering what the group would be called beacuse there was so many so we came home and researched and found out what it was called. 

Did you know that a group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope, a swarm or a flutter?  

I found it really hard to take a photo beacuse they just keep moving really fast.

  2. Kia ora Cameron,
    that is amazing! I have never seen butterflies like that before. Great video capture of it too.
    I never knew a group of butterflies are called a kaleidoscope - thank you for teaching us that.
    Do you know what tree they are flying around? There is obviously something very good on that tree for butterflies. I wonder what it is?

  3. Hola Cameron,
    It's great to see your Lockdown activities on your blog.
    Your video and photo are amazing. It would have been an incredible sight. I have never seen that many in one spot before.
    Yes, I did know that a group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope. Maybe you could research the names of more groups of animals.
