Why Butterflies wings change during seasons

This to me is very interesting because I never knew that they did this! This is such a cool way to survive and such a cool way to camouflage. To be able to change the patterns on the wings of a butterfly is absolutely amazing and a very strategic way to survive if you ask me. I have butterfly bushes at my house, one in the front yard and one in the back, so whenever they are in bloom there are butterflies every where

                They have always interested me with how many varieties there are, how delicate their wings must be, how they were all caterpillars at one time, and I even read an article one time about this one type of butterfly that would die if it ever stopped flying and now this! It just goes to show how much interesting things there are just in your own backyard that usually gets overlooked. They change so they wont be prey or they can trick their predators.

                 This clearly relates to science but not so clearly also relates to social studies because of how much butterflies have changed and adapted from different times, even if it was just one season.
