Best Answer

They sometimes descend on to plants on the ground to feed- at night time they will sleep in the shelter of plant or tree leaves, and also lay their eggs there. Average lifespan of a butterfly is only about 3 days- the eggs they lay hatch into caterpillars, which when developed pupate into butterflies.
