Butterfly frenzy, La Isla Escondida, Colombia

Just before arriving at La Isla Escondida, a group of pro lepidopterists had visited. They passed on a remarkably effective way to attract butterflies: a potion consisting of grinded rotten shrimp and human urine. It smells as disgusting as it sounds, but it works wonders.

This scene shows 2 individuals of Zaretis isidora, and 1 individual of Prepona dexamenus, along with a bunch of orchid bees.
