Breathtaking Photographs of Butterflies & Moths

I love this pocket guide of butterflies and moths. The photographs are breathtaking!!! The introduction of this book gives an overview of butterflies and moths including their lifecycle and behavior. Plus at the back of the book there is a section about the various family groups of both moths and butterflies. There is also a great glossary of terms at the end of the book as well an index. What I enjoy most about this book is that that the butterflies and moths are organized into their perspective family groups. Each butterfly or moth has a color picture as well as a short description about it along with the following information: the color of the catepillar it starts out as, its wingspan in inches, its habitat, regions in which you'll find the moth/butterfly, and how common or rare it is.
