    Default A Choco visitor

    Guess who came to visit from up north? One customer at Simon's spa today, so hopefully our little kiddo can have a nice birthday present tomorrow if it's still around.

    Ellen also shot the rarer char-boh version of this species (Pls show us your shot, Ellen). Looks like migratory season is late this year.

    Butterfly dogs don't like baths. They only like to puddle... in their own pee!

    Yes, this is one rare shot of a female Pierid puddling. They usually don't. But unless we know what it's feeding on (sometimes it's a rotting fruit) on the forest floor, we can't be sure why it does that. The female wasn't puddling at the same location where we laid out our (B)uffet for the male.
