Dare To Fly (1998) Cairns Birdwing Butterflies, Queensland
I have often thought of the butterfly as a wordpicture for making the most out of the present
moment. Life can seem short when we age a
little. This species lives a mere four to five
weeks. During that time they follow their drive to
reproduce, only pausing to feed and to rest to
recoup energy. And so the Cairns Birdwing
Butterfly, our largest and arguably one of our
boldest reminds me that I should seize life with
gusto, that I should ‘dare to fly’ each and every
day of my life.
