Butterflies taste with their feet. (Something I always wanted to know) Actually knew that one and I think it's cool..I just dig butterflies. I didn't know that. I like butterflies too. I especially like seeing Monarch butterflies in my garden. Winx, I like your posts...that I've seen. At the University of Florida we have a Butterfly Rainforest...I go there often simply to walk through this huge enclosure with tens of thousands of butterflies...they come and rest on you as you walk or sit. Beautiful...like a Zen garden in a way. Here's the link...and if you're ever in Gainesville you should see it. Also, the largest collection in the world of preserved butterflies...more than 3 million! Like your profile! http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/butterflies/rainforest.htm |

Women and men do not differ in their rates of spontaneous blinking. Generally, between each blink in intervals of 2-10 seconds; actual rates vary by individual averaging around 10 blinks per minute in a laboratory setting. However, when the eyes are focused on an object for an extended period of time, such as when reading, the rate of blinking decreases to about 3-4 times per minute. This is the major reason that eyes dry out and become fatigued when reading.
Eye blinking can be a criterion for diagnosing medical conditions. For example, excessive blinking may help to indicate the onset of Tourette syndrome, strokes or disorders of the nervous system. A reduced rate of blinking is associated with Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's patients have a distinct serpentine stare that is very recognizable. I always thought that was the evil eye. |
