Common Sailor on Green Leaf

in Beauty of Creativity7 days ago

This species also love flowers and ripening fruits for energy intakes. It can be easily confused with those of the Short Banded Sailor on the upper side, but the two can be identified with their drastically different undersides. Luckily, I used DSLR, so I could be able to take these photos from a distance range. This species is relatively common in Indonesia, even sometimes we can find this typical butterfly in the bush, pretty much around the flower garden. From black-and-white patterns to multi-colored designs, each species of butterfly is unique in its own right. This butterfly is commonly found throughout Asia and Southeast Asia that usually produce wet season, dry season and intermediate forms that used to be seen in open areas of primary and secondary forest, including along riverbanks, roadsides and mostly hang around the flowers.
