    Default Birdwing and Rose season

    Looks like the season for the Common Birdwing and Rose.

    while waiting to bring Jon and Brian to shoot Harlequin, I saw at least half a dozen of each type , all pristine . I have located their host plants over there.

    So another location to shoot these 2 species..... temporarily that is.

    What a relief to know that they are doing find there though temporally. We should throw some T. acuminata seeds in another nearby area

    The T. acuminata I saw there are very old plants and has been climbing up a tree , both Birdwings and Roses must have been on it for years.

    I did not noticed it in previous visits , it was the number of Birdwings and Common Roses that attracted my attention this morning that led me to walk closes to investigate.
