Description
4 paradise birdwing butterflies, Ornithoptera paradisea, with large oval black, green, and yellow front wings and small triangular shaped hindwings with curved tail extensions and 4 olive colored birdwing butterflies with blue and yellow and red accented wings inspired by Queen Alexandra’s birdwing are arranged on a repeating green coffee stain mosaic butterfly pattern in this New Guinea birdwing butterfly garden nature mandala. Birdwing butterflies share the same family of butterflies as swallowtails and number in at least 36 species in 3 genera. Because of their brilliant colors and large wing spans, up to 8 inches in some species, birdwing butterflies are a favorite butterfly with collectors worldwide. Because of their popularity and presence in zoo living exhibits, this popularity may keep this species from extinction because of sustained breeding in New Guinea and other locales. You will find over 200 butterfly images in both circular mandala and rectangular nature panel images. Visit phelpsmandala.com for over 1000 nature images that celebrate the beauty of nature’s biodiversity and for blog posts outlining my inspirations, mentors, and art process. Thank you for bringing the beauty of the outdoors into your favored indoor spaces.
