Butterfly

Butterfly (flutterby) are mostly found around one or more flowers as they spawn next to them. Disturbing the flowers can get them to come out.

You can catch them with a bug net just like fireflies and bees and will drop one butterfly wing.

Catching live butterflies with the bug net enables you to "plant" the live butterflies in the ground, creating flowers.

Pressing spacebar near them or targetting them with particular tools will cause you to attack them. Note, living butterflies are different from dead ones. The living butterfly and butterfly wings are seperate objects.

They also have a small chance of dropping a butter upon death, the rate of occurance has been noted as low as 1/80. Although this data is unconfirmed.

The butterfly wing is used to produce the cup cake (see Crock Pot Recipes ).

The butterfly wing also gives 5 research points.
