Very cool photo you have there. Would be perfect for a butterfly field guide to show the differences between these species!
Ursula
and by the way-very interesting conversation you two had downstairs ;) wait till injica comes back ;)
Ursula
they look a lot alike-it's interesting that 3 different species got together like this and you even caught them on camera-way cool! :)
Jopy
hahaha she can try but it's impossible to be like us :)))..she has very analytic mind and is pure chemist...
FaredinAliyevski
She must be too naive to think she will become a biologist like us, she is born for chemistry :)
Jopy
yes, she is! she said to me that we'll be colleagues... poor girl :))))
Jopy
hahaha soon she'll be identify very easy all our spottings :)
FaredinAliyevski
Hahaha, I won't use the word luck anymore :)! Yea kids need to study :D
Jopy
it's not luck, it's knowledge hahaha I know very well these mountains (btw near is my hometown) and where i can find endemic plants and lot of butterflies :) I wish she stayed here but injica have to study, has no time for spottings...I have to ask her what's happend with her...
FaredinAliyevski
As always you are lucky! And I see you got rid of injica, you sent her north so she doesn't get any spottings :)
Jopy
Thank you! it was some butterflies summer party :) there was about 20-30 butterflies in one place by the creek and found only 5-6 species...
FaredinAliyevski
Wow, that's a nice spotting jopy! Perfect for learning the difference between these 3 species that look so similar :).
