Beautiful Butterfly
Photograph. The obliging creature (I’m still trying to identify it) landed just in front of me and posed for about 20 seconds before fluttering away. I debated a tighter crop, but loved the muted greens of the background. One of those “oh, yes!” moments!

It almost looks like some kind of Hairstreak (the little tails on the ends of the wings) but I don’t know if you have them in So. Africa. I think if you cropped it slightly on the top-its a fantastic image one of the best I’ve seen ! Was it really tiny?

Thanks, Janice! It was about 2 cm in length. Thanks,too, for the cropping advice. Much appreciated, Ann.
