    Default Some shots from KL Butterfly Park

    Managed a short visit to KL Butterfly Park during my recent visit to Malaysia.
    Here are some of the shots taken with my prosumer cam.

    Pic 1: I believe this is the Cethosia biblis.
    Pic 2: Roja Brooke's Birdwing
    Pic 3, 4: Great Orange Tip
    Pic 5: UFO, please help to ID it.

    Nice subjects at the KL Butterfly Park! Pity you didn't bring your DSLR along.

    Yes, the 1st one is the Batik Lacewing (Cethosia biblis). The last one is a Wizard (Rhinopalpa polynice eudoxia). LC Goh shot a male also at the KL Butterfly Park in his earlier thread, and you nailed a female, albeit a tattered one.

    Thanks, Khew for the ID assistance on the Batik Lacewing and the Wizard.
    Yes, it is pity I didn't have my DSLR with me as I was really struggling with the slow focus and shot-to-shot time on the prosumer camera.

    It looks like Caveman visited the park not too long before my visit on 21 June.

    Great to have a shot of the female Wizard (I would say Witch, but that's a different species). The two photos clearly show the difference in the hindwing shape, which I mentioned on an earlier thread.
