Field Notes
Description:
Light orange butterfly with long wings (I guess that's why they sometimes are known as Longwings and are characterised by their simple patterns, elongated forewings and delicate fluttering flight.) , and some black markings on the wings.
Habitat:
Our garden, Los Palos Grandes, Altamira, Caracas, Venezuela. Near the Cerro del Avila mountain range and at 1000m above sea level.
Notes:
This butterfly has a lovely flight and was fluttering into our garden which gave me the opportunity to take its picture quick.
