Of the butterflies that do eat (not all do) they have long probiscuses that they suck nectar with. When not in use they have them coiled up like a fiddle-head.

Butterflies use a long tube-like structure called a proboscis to suck up nectar from flowers. They unfurl their proboscis and insert it into the flower to extract the sweet liquid. Some butterflies also feed on other sources such as rotting fruits, tree sap, or animal droppings.

Most moths are nocturnal too, they live in the dark. Butterflies live in the day
