rohan, i opened the first picture of the mud-puddling butterflies without reading your email first and wondered why the scene looked so familiar. that was a great trip, wasn't it? so many exciting sightings! i wish you could carry on with us to arunachal, that was another wonderful trip where i photographed the Yellow Dryad (Aemona amathusia). you should definitely come with me once again next year. i really enjoyed your company and your enthusiasm for butterflies.
