This species had been on my list for a year, but as I had neither photo nor specimen, I was beginning to doubt myself.
Fortunately, this male turned up at my garden yesterday. I now have the full set of King Crows!
Euploea klugii erichsonii ( Brown King Crow)
I also include Blue and Peacock Pansy shots,(also from the garden yesterday) for the sole reason that they have come out better than my usual shots.;-)
Wow, love your first shot very much.:cheers:
Your shots getting better and better.
Ya... a good shot of a very pristine specimen.
Les' photography must have been positively influenced by the gang who were up at Samui recently. LC Goh or Bobby must've taught him a trick or two. :grin2:
Agree with Fed and Khew. Nice shots and they are nicely taken. :thumbsup:
I love your garden, should put a chair there and shoot the butts while sitting down.
No lah... we learnt from Les instead. :bsmile:
Cheers!
Learnt what? How to drink a six pack beer and still shoot butts without using a tripod? :grin2:Quote:

First thing in the morning, the chair needs to be situated on the road by the Lantana hedge. In 5 minutes this morning at c 7:30, I spotted 10 different species of Danaids feeding there (no Tigers, they are late risers:lazy2: )!
Wow, very nice shots and sharp too. :cheers:
Haha.. Bobby, guess that was your first time in that KS restaurant, after beers shooting / chasing butt. :bsmile:
