Buttefly shot I have seen in at least several weeks. Lovely.

Thanks
Thanks Herschel, I'm very glad you like them. It was not very difficult to get the shots, it stayed there for a very long time, sucking some minerals from the soil :)

Looks like you nailed it.
Why don't you post them right in the species page? You can move them by pressing "tag all" above the thumbnails, then navigating to the appropriate page and untagging them.

Thanks
I take your kind words as confirmation and move them to the species page.
