Besides the specimen of Athyma reta around the new hut, there were quite a few species flying around at various spots in CCA. Here are shots of two other species (pic 1: Nacaduba pactolus; pics 2 & 3: Malayan Sunbeam) which allowed me time to take close-up shots.

You should post this in the butt photography section :P

I particularly like the 1st sunbeam picture. The greyish background suits the butterfly very well! :thumbsup:

I like ur 2nd shot.
It has a very muted bg which goes well with the butt.:)

Thanks, Anthony and Aaron. The 1st Sunbeam pic was taken when the butt was licking goodies from the surface of the brand-new cement bench in the hut, and the greyish white background is the brand-new cement floor.

Do lookout for the baby Malayan Sunbeam, we've not recorded that yet ;)

Doing just that for the past few visits. Still no luck yet! :-(

Malayan sunbeam is not easy to find! Note that his legs look like tiny candy canes!
