Zebra Longwing Butterfly Cushion

The Zebra Longwing Butterfly, Florida's official state butterfly, is a striking and distinctive species known for its long, narrow wings adorned with bold black and yellow stripes. Found throughout the state, especially in tropical and subtropical habitats, it feeds on nectar from various flowers and serves as an essential pollinator. With its graceful flight and vibrant appearance, the Zebra Longwing Butterfly adds a touch of beauty to Florida's natural landscapes and is cherished by both nature enthusiasts and casual observers alike. I found this Zebra Longwing Butterfly while walking the trails in Alligator Lake Park in Lake City Florida.
