A butterfly with transparent wings? Surely not. Yet there is a species that exhibits this trait. Take a close look at the incredible Glasswing, an enchanting species that confounds science.
Greta oto may sound like the name of a silent movie star from Eastern Europe but is in fact the scientific name for one of the most exquisite – and little known – species of butterfly on the planer. This butterfly’s claim to fame is that its wings, spanning up to six centimeters, are almost completely transparent. That’s right, you can see just about right through them. source (http://www.arkinspace.com/2011/07/incredible-glasswing-butterfly.html)

Choose 1 Butterfly and paste 3 pictures of it ;-)
The European Peacock, more commonly known simply as the Peacock butterfly, is a colourful butterfly, found in Europe and temperate Asia
as far east as Japan.
Beautiful coloring and spots that look like eyes to scare off enemies
The Underwing is so different. It can be camo too.
**This is for the BLG ~ Butterfly profile deco ლ JUNE **
I choose the Papilionidae (swallowtails) Butterfly They are large in size and can be easily recognized for their flying technique as they tend to glide rather than making rapid beating movements with their wings.

Red Lacewing Butterfly.
The only true predominantly red butterfly in Australia is the
Red Lacewing (cethosia cydippe).
I hope you like the pics and gifs that I've chosen for you!
A mermaid is a fictitious or mythical half-human sea creature with the head and trunk of a woman and the tail of a fish, conventionally depicted as beautiful and with long flowing golden hair.
Because I love water and especially being in and around it. I always thought of all the mythical creatures being a mermaid would be my first choice just because I would love to swim everywhere.
Hugs, Carolina/ Darkestlina
I would really like to try swimming in a tail someday,
