Yesterday afternoon, after a harrowing day at school, I was relaxing in my verandah with a cup of hot coffee, when I saw a flash of blue. I ran to get the camera. After fifteen minutes of running after my rare visitor, I could get some pictures of the butterfly.
The large blue butterfly visited all the flowers in my garden.
My exhaustion vanished completely with the adrenalin surging in my veins.
The huge butterfly did not forget to visit the Cayenne pepper. When at last it flew away, I went back to my coffee which had become cold.
The Blue Mormon Papilio polymnestor is a native of the rainforests of South India and Sri Lanka. It is the second largest swallowtail butterfly of the region. My visitor measured 7 inches from wingtip to wingtip. The Blue Mormon is sometimes seen in cities like Bangalore and Mysore because it is attracted to the heavy vegetation there.
