Hey ya'll
just going to keep things short this time round. Nothing much to report on this front actually except for a rather 'rare' butterfly I found today... but that can wait for its own pins and needles post, I suppose (check back in a week's time)...and two of my atlas moth pupae seem to be duds but on the bright side, it appears that I shall be having another magnificent birdwing on the way (maybe tomorrow... though, I would not be able to stick around for it to emerge on account of a very important consultation session with Dr. A...) ANYWAY, the butterflies from Bukit Bandaraya, Shah Alam...

| Precis orithya wallacei (male) |
 |
| Precis orithya wallacei (female) |
 |
| Precis orithya wallacei (variant, male) |
 |
| Danaus vulgaris macrina |
 |
| Neptis hyalas mamaja |
 |
| Spindasis syama terana |
 |
| Eurema hecabe contubernalis |
 |
| Mycalesis mineus macromalyana |
Which pretty much concludes the butterfly-list of Bukit Bandaraya, Shah Alam. Not to say that there aren't other species of butterflies fluttering about that area but rather, that these were the only ones I managed to net. I did see a rather beautiful and magnificent Papilio demolion though, and it's what I have got my sights set on currently. Meanwhile, Ray contributed to this round of collecting as well...

| Appias libythea (female) |
Would you believe me if I said that last night I actually dreamt that I was a butterfly? It was pretty, for sure, but also very chaotic... try seeing a billion miniature copies of things at one time, also that colour seems...inverted somehow. Compound eyes... not my thing...
