This afternoon, the weather was a bit cloudy when we walked in the Alue Liem hills. But just a few minutes after stopping close to a swamp, the weather suddenly turned hot.
Expectations of finding a variety of fascinating insects disappeared immediately with changes in the weather at that time.

But I'm not really disappointed; at least I can still catch this beautiful butterfly there.
The dark pierrot, or the scientific name Tarucus ananda, was busy with her own business when I shot her.
I had to squint my eyes; while she didn't care how hot the weather was, she continued to sip flower nectar with her soft proboscis
Today was enough. "I'm full!" She flew away and moved to the grass to relax.
