Some shots for today

[Psyche]

thanks brian and khew.

forgot one more picture. Another plain nawab feeding on what i think is a rambutan seed? Strangely, it looks identical to the one i shot on the fern earlier in the day, except it has a slightly torn wing on both sides.

could it be the exact same one? if so, it must've ran into a bird or something..

It should be the same one. This individual have a black dot in the forewing cell not usually present in this species.

good eye dr seow,

but a quick search on google yielded many results with P. hebe having black spot on forewing cell.

here's one which i shot in my home which eclosed, also showing the same spot.

*coincidentally, also on the same species of fern. but this one's in my home

You are right, the black dot doesn't work.
However, all the markings & their shapes matched correctly.
There are 2 v-shaped scratches on vein 3 which runs & ends between the 2 tails. These also matched.

This last one here( apart from differently shaped markings) also have 2 scratches on vein 3 but they are linear.

looks like they are the same one afterall! scratches that i didn't notice before suggests that it probably was not a freshly eclosed one.
