Life is like a box of Chocolates

Chocolate Grass Yellows, that is. Looks like this species is in season. I stumbled on a group of 30-40 Chocolate Grass Yellows last week. In this shot, after waiting for them to re-assemble, only shows 21.

They must be breeding like mad somewhere nearby.

Amazing! Where was this shot?

The host plant is Archidendron ellipticum, a plant very common in CCA and BTNR, as well as in central parts of Southern Ridges.

Take your pick, CCA and BTNR.

Thanks, Horace. I presume you've already nailed the full life history of this species?

Nice shot. I love to come across groups of butterflies like that. Here in Australia, I rarely see puddlers.
