Field Notes

Habitat:

Resting on a leaf of a small weed on the road leading to my home

Notes:

This is another spotting I've seen after a long time in this habitat, 1 year and 3 months. It looks like more and more butterflies that went missing in the past two years are appearing gradually which is really good news to me!
