Big summer thirst

notes:
Enormous and long heats in Europe caused that, as well as beasts and their quarries meet at the watering place in Africa, I met the Swallowtail ( at a swimming pool. I distilled a few drops of water beneath his proboscis, he got frightened a little bit, though he did not fly away and drunk them all. Thus the butterfly became the domestic animal for a while. As well as when I was twelve and collected one hundred black caterpillars of the Peacock butterfly. I nettle-fed them between glasses of a double window at our cottage until butterflies were hatched. One day, I let them out by opening the window and I won’t forget till the end of my life how this iridescent cloud glanced in the sun.
