The Butterfly House is a satellite of the Missouri Botanical Garden (as is Shaw Nature Reserve, which itself I haven't been to since L came to town a couple years ago). Anyway, the Butterfly House is beautiful (if somewhat warm), and there are butterflies all over the place! Really, I was afraid I might step on one.
There's also a little outdoor garden, as well as some bugs (including roaches - ick!) in indoor terrariums (terraria?). A nice outing on a lovely morning!
The garden
Surrounded by butterflies...
...and sometimes they'll even come talk to you.
The lovely habitat
Caterpillars are "the teenagers of the insect world," due to their voracious appetites.
