Patrick Simmons+FollowButterflies Hit a Chilly RoadblockButterflies are adapting fast to climate change, but even their super-evolution skills have limits! Scientists in Sweden found that wall brown butterflies can speed up their growth and nail winter timing as they move north, but freezing winters still stop them from going further. Turns out, evolution can’t outsmart every climate challenge. Why does it matter? Knowing these limits helps predict which pollinators (and pests!) might move as the planet warms.

EcoEagle+Followdid i just witness a butterfly birth in my backyard garden?I can’t believe what’s happening in my garden right now. There’s a tiny monarch chrysalis hanging from my milkweed, and it’s about to burst open! I’ve been watching this little guy for days, checking every morning while watering my plants. Turns out, planting milkweed was the best decision ever—monarchs love it, and it’s super easy to grow. I never thought I’d get this close to nature just by adding a few native plants. The best part? My garden’s buzzing with bees and butterflies all the time. If you want to see more wildlife, just mix in some native flowers and skip the pesticides. You’ll be surprised by what shows up! butterflies #gardeningtips #naturelovers #backyardwildlife #butterflies #gardeningtips #naturelovers #backyardwildlife #Gardening330Share
