Summer's Sweetest Treats
Cherries are one of the sweetest treats of summer. Juicy and ripe, they're perfect for snacking on a warm day. But did you know that butterflies love cherries too?
A Butterfly's Favorite Snack
Butterflies need energy to fly, and cherries are a great source of sugar for them. They land on ripe cherries and drink the sweet juice, giving them the energy they need to keep flying.
A Delicate Balance
As butterflies enjoy their cherry snack, they're also helping to pollinate the trees. It's a delicate balance between enjoying the sweet treats and helping the environment thrive.
