David Suzuki sure never created this one.
I think we'll give God the credit for this one

Superb specimen with amazing diaphanous wings!
This butterfly looks like a tiny hand-painted wire sculpture.

Very nice shot! Brings back memories. I used to study this group of butterflies from the rainforests of Central and South America. It was really fun to find a 'lek' which is a grouping of several Ithomiid butterfly species, sometimes numbering into the thousands in a small area.

Not only a fantastic shot, but a real surprise to me. I've never heard of one like this, much less seen one. Thanks!!
