Resting on flowers

Wow ...

Beauty!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It contrasts so well with the blue flower..what a poser ! :o)

lovely picture

that's wonderful Sticki.

butterflies are lovely i think, amazing creatures, this one was bigger than some of the birds in my garden!
thank you sheila, pixi, bloomer, paul and surreylad

Beautiful. Any idea where this one originates from? Just imagine having them in your garden :)

really sorry Gee, there wasnt much information on which butterfly was which so i dont know ~ i tried to google it but i cant find it that way either.
it would be amazing to have in the garden

i used to go to the Syon park butterfly farm 3/4 times a year but sadly it closed that part :-(

such a shame surreylad when they close nice places.

Beautiful capture.....

had to have this one on flash, it was quite a dull day and this one was in a darker corner.

That is amazing so beautiful, pity they didnt have information on the different species!

it is and its surprising! you would think there would be lots but i didnt see a poster, a leaflet or any signs??

That is strange, I know if I was visitingI would want to know as mucg as possible about the individual species;0(

yes, quite odd!

Nice shot Sticki
