Attract more butterflies to your backyard with a Butterfly Puddling Station.
Butterflies require water sources, which they usually obtain from dew and rain. Also, male butterflies are often seen puddling. Large groups of male butterflies will gather around a mud puddle, damp sand or gravel on the ground and appear to drink water. What they are actually doing is taking in mineral-rich moisture to replenish their sodium levels, which are depleted during the mating ritual.
