Field Notes

Description:

I found this butterfly on the grass in the garden so tried to put it on the plants so that the birds would'nt harm it but once it was on my hand it did'nt want to leave ......... about an hour later it died : (

looks a bit like Papilio aegeus, but the tails for this one are longer..
