“I SEE WINGS OF GREEN...RED AND BLUE, TOO”

-

Magellan birdwing butterflie­s are known for not only their size but also for the color of their large wings, which are said to be iridescent at certain angles.

In Taiwan’s Orchid Island, it was noted that their wings changed color depending on the angle from which it was viewed. Its normally bright yellow-colored hind wings would turn into a green, blue, or sometimes even red hue.
