Vibrant Signal Butterfly
You may think those warning sirens for storms and tornados are signaled by fancy technologic systems which read the weather. In truth, I'm the one pets look to to know when the storms will come. My delicate wings give me the ability to detect the air flow and pressure changes which can create dangerous conditions.
Once I sense the air change, I travel to nearby homes to warn pets to take cover and help the elderly pets reach safety. As I finish my rounds I begin the dangerous portion of my job, tracking the storm as it travels across the terrain.
When the danger has passed, I begin the final portion of my responsibility - checking on the damage which may have occurred. I am proud to be able to claim I have never had a pet harmed during my watch. Majority of any damage is restricted to the terrain alone. Once I have confirmed the results of the passed storm I am able to relax and unwind until the next shift begins.

Distance flyingMany species of butterflies that migrate thousands of miles south in the fall do not return to their previous summer residences. One autumn a few clever butterflies devised a plan to make the long trip back home so they could be reunited with their friends again next year. The butterflies stitched a map of each leg of the journey, updating it whenever they stopped at a rest stop. A single strand of silk from their silkworm cousins kept the map securely attached to their abdomens.
After a long winter in sunny Mexico the butterflies studied the map carefully, took a big sip of nectar from their favorite flower, and off they went. Imagine the surprise of all their friends back home when they returned the following summer! The garden was abuzz with tales of their amazing journey. The butterflies’ stories were so inspirational that they all decided they wanted to experience that kind of epic road trip for themselves. Year after year, they planned destinations further and further away so they could challenge each other to set a new long-distance record.
