I was photographing a green dragon tail at first and this beauty was extremely cooperative. Didn't move a bit despite the strong wind and my approaching him/her. Delias cinerascens cinerascens. ID credit: Les Day.

WOW some fantastic shots Kurt - every one of them, but the one that catches my eye the most is the Beautiful Green Dragontail butterfly, reminds me of a fish! even though its not the most colourful, its very unusual.

Thanks for sharing!
