#5 Butterfly room



After resisting the cookie temptation we made our way to the butterfly room where many many butterflies were buzzing around. They would sit on you fingers or try to get into your nose while taking a picture. Apart from the living ones we could also get a glance at Cornell's collection of colorful preserved butterflies. Interestingly the glass drawers where preserved butterflies are kept (all over the world) were invented by Comstock, a Cornell researcher. All in all we really had a bunch of fun at the Insectopalooza!
