    SB,

    Thanks.

    I have some long lenses but...rolleyes1.gif

    The Blue Morpho has a similar colour and pattern. If the images are good enough that will be the next one posted.

    Thanks, Brian.

    These, and the Morphos, are frequent among such displays and there are lots of opportunities.

    Unfortunately, the group of three at a feeding point was to soft to post.
