Green-spotted Triangle

This is the first time I’ve seen this rainforest species in my (non-rainforest) backyard.
It was hyperactive! I took this photo with a shutter speed of 1/800 of a second and still it isn’t as sharp as I’d like.
The flowers are those of the Lime Berry (Micromelum minutum) which is doing a wonderful job attracting butterflies at the moment.

It took great skill to get such a fine image of this rainforest visitor - plus patience, or dancing around the fragrant flowers (or both).

You captured it beautifully Don - the green on the wings looks luminous - what a lovely butterfly BV
