This is to start the thread for Loke, Chng and Cher Hern to add on. Our first day shootout at Gua Tempurung :)
Many thanks to Loke for planning and organizing this trip for Khew, Cher Hern and me. And especially so for driving us around for the passed 3 days. He even selected the right dates :thumbsup: to be there as the weather was just nice for butt shooting. Lucky for us, rain only came when we were leaving Ipoh.
It was a wonderful trip for me where I've seen many different species in just 2 days. Hope to have more such trips in future. Here's some shots to start. Will post more later today as I'm bringing my camera for "operation" now :sweat:

No show for White Dragontail!!!??
Got... got... be patient. :grin2:
Chng and CH should've nailed some good shots, whilst I was shooting the shooters... :bsmile:
Here's my Lamproptera curius curius (White Dragontail)...quite difficult to shoot due to the small space constrain and rocky terrain, unless one is willing to sacrifice and get wet...
