At first glance, you might think it's just a shimmer of light, but look closer. The glasswing butterfly (yes, its wings are actually see-through) is nature’s little magic trick. With delicate, transparent wings framed in soft brown and orange, it practically disappears into its surroundings. Native to Central and South America, the glasswing (Greta oto) uses its clear wings to blend in and avoid predators. It’s like a ghost in the garden. Graceful, quiet, and stunning in a subtle way. And while it looks fragile, it’s surprisingly tough, even feeding on toxic plants without harm. It's like a stained glass art piece come to life. There is truly nothing quite like these and are the perfect addition to any collection.
