 In most parts of the country the butterfly season runs
from March to November. However, regardless of the time of year
butterflies tend to be seen on sunny days; not on overcast ones.
The peak month is August when you can expect a number of
butterflies in your garden every day provided that it's sunny.
Below are some examples of butterflies you can expect to visit
in each month between March and November.
