Field Notes

Notes:

Spotted this with other butterflies feeding something on the road. Had great difficulty in getting the correct angle as it hardly opened its wings fully, side view was also not possible because vehicles on the road prevented me going down on all four! To complicate the situation some three species went on shuffling among themselves, and the light was failing!!
