Field Notes

Description:

Saw this active one in my garden. The wings seems to be eaten or damaged at the ends. Not sure if that is natural.

Ashish this was a pretty calm Butterfly infact. Even after clicking and me going inside the house it was still sitting at the same place. Good luck for your next trek.
