Abuko National Park is a nature reserve in the Gambia lying south of the town of Abuko. It is a popular tourist attraction and was the Gambia's first designated wildlife reserve.
The series of Butterfly stamps is the 3rd set in the series for Abuko national park Stamps - this wonderful stamps set and Miniature sheet is a must have and has beautiful details.
Butterflies feed primarily on nectar from flowers. Some also derive nourishment from pollen,tree sap, rotting fruit and dung.
Butterflies are important as pollinators for some species of plants although in general they do not carry as much pollen load as bees. They are however capable of moving pollen over greater distances.
Last year I visited Longleat Safari in the UK and the Butterfly house was a treat to the eyes . It had some beautiful and colorful Moths and butterflies .
