Glass-winged Butterflies Photography
Have you ever glimpsed a glasswinged butterfly (Greta oto)? You might think that this animal is a figment of one's fantasy, possibly a photo shopped composite shot of a butterfly blending into a serene setting, but the truth is that it exists! The aptly entitled bug is a brush-footed (or four-footed) butterfly whose wings emerge to be made of glass, though they're not. The tissue inside their wings need the usually colorful pigments discovered in other butterflies; thus, they have a glassy, transparent look.
Discovered mainly in centered America (Mexico through Panama), the glasswinged butterfly's title in Spanish is Espejitos which translates as little reflectors. In certain lights, the translucent wing parts have a glossy, nearly reflective value to them that makes their Spanish name effectively unquestionable. if they're glimpsed as glass or mirrors, though, there's certain thing absolutely fascinating about the way these butterflies' wings offer a surreal look at the environment around the bug. It's like they're minute ornaments conceived to draw the eye to the picturesque apply of nature.
