From my window, the Moringa tree flowers I see. At midday, the creamy white flowers against the bright green leaves, peppered with the old yellow leaves sway in the slight breeze.
It is warm but that doesn't deter the Lime Swallowtail butterflies from their nectaring activities I find. There are two that I can see, as I reach for the camera. Cream on cream.
The camera focuses on the 'wrong' things - that drying leaf, the pigeon net in the foreground - before finally figuring out where my interest lies.
Papilio demoleus comes into focus! And I am happy with the outcome.
This most common butterfly, I still find so pretty. The spots, the little blue and red tinged spots on the large creamy body. And to think it will be dead in maybe 4 days or less.
