ceherzog: Oh, they're so beautiful underneath! Wonderful butterflies in general, at least I think so. And I'm glad you like my avatar. She's my representation of an Australian aboriginal mythical being called Coon Undura, the Dragonfly Woman. I have NO idea what she's supposed to look like really, but I love the idea of her so I've adopted her as my personal logo. :)
Gosh, I don't think I've ever really looked at that incredible ventral rear wing. Glad to have you as a member of Project Noah...love your avatar!!
