Welcome to the Photo Gallery. The intention of this gallery is to make you aware of the beauty and fragility of butterflies. Through awareness comes appreciation, through appreciation comes, hopefully, protection. Protection of butterflies alone is not enough and often not even necessary. Of much more importance is the protection of biotopes. Rich marshes, natural meadows, chalkhills, you name it. They may not be lost for ever.

Of all the insects, none elicit pleasure and curiosity more readily than butterflies. Like the abundance of verdant mountains and beaches, butterflies are ever present during one's visit to Costa Rica. There is nowhere one goes, whether a 3,000 meter volcanic summit or the arid plains of Guanacaste where butterflies are not present.
Costa Rica is unusually blessed by the diversity of it's butterflies. There exists about 20,000 butterfly species worldwide. Of these, about 1,000 or 5% can be found in Costa Rica.
