Amazing butterflies migration in several parts of Lebanon including Hima Kayfoun for the last three days.
The butterflies were spotted also at Ouzai near the Rafic Hariri International Airport. Thousands of these butterflies migrating south. A magical spectacle.
As witnessed and filmed by Maher Osta from SPNL and Ali Dagher Mayor of Kayfoun and Hima team.
It’s the first-ever documentation of butterflies in Lebanon. Mont Lebanon is traditionally well known for the butterflies diversity and should be reclaimed as a butterflies Hima.
