More butterflies

At last a few butterflies . . .

I'm quite intrigued by the spiral of the coiled proboscis.
I also saw lots of peacocks and several whites and yesterday a blue (holly blue possibly, but no pic).

This little fellow was on the window frame, so i thought I'd take a quick snap before letting him or her out.  Very small - about 1 cm along the bottom of the triangle.
