  Thanks! I saw various species of black and red papilionids quite often, but very rarely managed to get photos of them perched. Posted 7 years ago

    Was this a specialized butterfly tour? Or did you just capture ones you came across? Posted 7 years ago

      No, nothing like that! I was a research assistant on a spider monkey project. But since i spent 12 hours a day in the forest, i saw a fair bunch of things besides the monkeys, and took lots of photos for JD :)) Posted 7 years ago
