The real reason we went to the Botanical Garden was to see the "Butterflies go free" exhibit. I have been wanting to go for years, but as it lasts only a couple of months, hadn't had a chance to get there. I am so happy we went - though I have to say it was real difficult to get some good shots as there were a lot of people, lots of humidity (my lens kept getting foggy!) and these little beauties can move fast!! The fun of this exhibit, is that the butterflies rule - they can go anywhere - even on us!
This orange one is an Attacus atlas
and I think this one is a Idea Ieucone
and the one one the banana - a caligo eurilochus
More to come! :)
