Amazing Butterflies

Here's an imaginative graphic well suited to April Fool's Day. It's from the Natural History Museum in London, advertising its new live tropical butterfly house which opens on 5 April, in time for the school holidays. Amazing Butterflies features free-flying tropical butterflies from America, Africa and Asia. Admission fees - £5 adults, £3.50 children and concessions, £14 families - aren't too bad, but entry is timed. So book in advance. If you collect first day covers, Tuesday 15 April is the day to visit the museum, because this is the first day of issue for the new Royal Mail first-class stamps showing endangered insects native to the UK. Images for these 10 stamps were selected from the museum's collection and the stamps will be on sale in the Museum shop.
