    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 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

    Rohana parisatis siamensis




    The Banded Angle (Odontoptilum pygela pygela)


    The Wavy Maplet (Chersonesia rahria rahria)

    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...







    ...and a peeing WDT

    Chng: What a pristine DT! The tails are so long!

    CherHern: Certainly a lovely set of non-local butterflies, where is your white DT? :P
