No, not rare. It can, however, be considered uncommon. I usually see a few specimens each year on Samui. It is getting close to the southernmost part of its range on Langkawi, so it may be rarer there, but remember, 'rarity' is a very subjective term.

I see. Maybe it's the other spp that are "actually" rare.

Lovely shot. I am looking forward to the other pics. Please add shots of the island as well.
