Each spring at the Phoenix Desert Botanical Gardens, they have a butterfly exhibit. You can go inside a big mesh tent right with the butterflies. Just swarms of them. I'd never seen anything like it. Very, very beautiful.
Here are some:
 |
| Giant swallowtail |
 |
| White peacock |
 |
| Zebra longwing |
 |
| Gulf fritillary (top of wings) |
 |
| Gulf fritillary (bottom of wings) |
The display usually ends in mid May. The rest of the botanical gardens are really awesome too. Plan plenty of time. Also, consider checking out a culture pass from the library--good for 2 admissions. :)
