tropical rainforest

Notes:

My guide and I rested on a rocky river bank for a while. A few butterflies were around so I put out my sweaty boots to entice them and it worked! Bogani Nani Wartabone national park.

Dan. I think this is one of the "sailors" Neptis sp. The "eyes" on the forewing are very distinctive.
