Butterflies in Oct 2019
Here are a few butterflies's photos taken recently in a nearby forest in Selangor.
 |
| Malayan Count (T.godartii) |
 |
| Great Orange Awlet (B.etelka) |
The above awl is a type of skipper and its size is much bigger as compared to other skippers.
 |
| Malayan Chestnut Bob (L stellifer) |
Quite a tiny lil skipper.
 |
| Malayan Birdwing (T.amphrysus) |
Have seen the above birdwing a few times but only manage to get its photo this time albeit from a distance.
