Here I attached my 3 fav pics of 2008 1.Cruiser-Vindula erota-My friend Premkrishnan and I had a wonderful butterflying at Kallar forests during 21st December.The day was filled with basking and mudpuddling beauties Cruiser was very active.It was sitting on leaf top and basking.Really a feast for our eyes. 2.Blue bottle and Common Jay- This face to face mud puddling scene was also taken from Kallar during 5th April 2008.We (Premkrishnan, Varun and I) were resting near the stream after observing activities in a Grey-headed Bulbul's nest in the reed thickets. The butterflies were active near the wet sand.I was focusing a Common Jay taking a close up of view of it.Suddenly a Blue Bottle rushed the place and i saw it through my camera and clicked it. 3.Eggs of Palm King-Sandex butterly enthusiast and my friend called me and inform me he found the egg laying of Palmking.At first i cant believe it.Next day i visited Thenmala and the eggs of Palmking.I take this recordical sighting with excitement. I am grateful to Sandex for give me an opportuinity to take this rare pic of palmking eggs. with warm regards Susanth Connect with friends all over the world. Get Yahoo!
