Field Notes

Description:

Very peculiar, somewhat triangular wings. Orange colour mostly tips are brown; white in between..

Habitat:

Garden of the homestay, an old bungalow inside a coffee plantation in Coorg.

Notes:

I have just one shot. The homestay dog decided to come and inspect me just as I focused on the butterfly! The second is the cropped version of the first shot.
