Beautiful shots, Khew
So, you manage to nail the Red Spot Sawtooth too. Chasing this skittish fella and trying to get a good shot, this guy literally made Sunny and I rolling on the sand

Thanks. This was shot with the Chocolate Albatross just taking off in the background and cropped off. Actually, both of you had great opportunities, if not for the Chocolate Albatrosses that kept blocking the Sawtooth! Sunny wanted to that bugger!

Another wonderful butterfly trip for me. Thanks to Khew and Shirley for the arrangement to make this trip possible and I enjoyed all the nice food cooked by Irene - simply delicious . It was also a great pleasure to finally meet LC and Les in person. Starting with some field shots first :

[The Plane]

Just 4 shots for now. Will post more when I return from Taiwan this weekend.

a) Club Beak (Libythea-myrrha-hecura)
b) Indian Yellow Nawab (Polyura jalysus jalysus)
c) Sunbeam on Sunny's finger, not sure ID
d) Dark Yellow-Banded Flat (Celaenorrhinus aurivittatus cameroni)

i like the shot of sunny with a cigarette and camera in his hands.

[Painted Jezebel]

Many thanks to LC for inviting me down to FH, a place that I had been wanting to visit for 5 years. It was also a delight to meet Khew and Sunny again, and finally meet Loke and Chng for the first time.

I have not processed any photos yet, but, post #12, pic 4, the flat, is Celaenorrhinus aurivittatus cameroni. Yes, it is a bit of a mouthful, even for me, so, for those who prefer the common name, it is a Dark Yellow-banded Flat.

If I see another Chocolate Albatross I'll scream, and the male Rajah Brooke's are soooo boring now!!! (not really).
