Butterflies in September

At last , I could take a picture of a butterfly in my garden! This is a Common Crow Euploea core on the flower. The butterflies in Bangalore seem to be faster than those I saw in the Western Ghats. The lage Blue Mormon visits my garden quite frequently, but I have never been able to photograph it here. It seemed so carefree in the jungle where it was flying slowly. It sat obligingly for a longer time on the bush, so I could get its picture.
The Blue Mormon, Papilio polymnestor in the jungle. The Blue Mormon is a large swallowtail.This is a male.

Another shot of the same beauty.


This Malabar Banded Swallowtail was posing so obligingly for us as we returned from the Cavala caves.
