She looks weak, but very beautiful

^{(Acraea terpsicore, the tawny coster)}

The figure was seen from a distance, slowly flapping its soft wings from the direction the sun was out, maybe its eyes were closed due to the influence of the radiation that emanated from the morning sun, so that it accidentally flew over to me.

Without the slightest hesitation, or experiencing fear, he approached more freely, and continued to approach until he stopped at my sleeve. At that time, I also wondered why this butterfly was so brave to come and perch on the left sleeve. Then he walked around looking for a peaceful location he thought, so he stopped periodically with his little foot in my hand.

The atmosphere was very stressful for him, so I let him walk as he pleased, with notes and hope that he can linger in my right hand. I looked closely at a distance of about 5 inches, and this was the first time I saw it up close, not in previous days who always avoided being approached.

This situation looks, as if he is friendly with me, like a child who is meeting his mother. Although at first I stayed motionless because I was afraid he would be surprised and fly off to another location. But for almost 15 minutes he walked and walked and changed positions in the pose of an artist who was doing his daily routine work.

^{We call him Si Towny Coster Dark Chocolate}

We call her here with a term that refers to the person who calls her Si Towny Coster and some also call her the Yellow Brown Butterfly Princess, basically there are many names that were born based on the mindset of the local community. If it is collected very much, but in this post, it is not mentioned, because the names that have been born are based on the non-verbal language of the community, not their own scientific names.

However, I also don't blame the names that are already well-known among the local community, because they give these names based on the patterns and profiles they have, both on their bodies and the behavior that comes from them.

One example that has been said by local people with a Black Chocolate Princesse Butterfly or Kupu-kupu Putrie Cokelat Hitam of course, refers to the pattern on its wings, why? and, what is the reason?

When traced, it turns out that the people here see the patterns found on the wings. The motifs and colors on the wings resemble one of the traditional clothes of noble daughters in our area. So it is very natural for them to give a name like that even though it is not in scientific language, so that everyone can quickly recognize it and of course it has been famous for a long time.

^{Back to the original story, when it landed on my sleeve}

As explained above, after perching on my sleeve, then slowly walking, and down into my own hands, then I saw this butterfly, which has one interesting thing, namely its stomach which is slightly larger than other ordinary butterflies. In every footprint, there was a liquid stuck to the skin of my hands, a red liquid. Thus it can be ascertained that she is (pregnant) or is ready for her eggs to be placed in the location of her choice (leaves), (It can be seen from picture no. 3)

Therefore, I suspect, he flew from far away to look for the location of the green leaves, when viewed from the initial location of its appearance, there were no weeds (arid location), so that while on the way he felt tired, and happened to rest on my sleeve. He looks weak with a rather heavy weight on his distended stomach.

For almost 15 minutes he stayed in my hands and then he moved slowly, like someone trying to find an exact location. I knew he was looking for the location mentioned above.

I also know what to do for him, of course, a location for healthy leaves, for his future children, or looking for healthy leaves, for his child's life when he enters the egg and caterpillar stage.

Because in general they will look for areas with lots of green leaves and safe locations, as their future domination area, this is prepared when the future offspring turn into eggs and caterpillars and strips into cocoons.

Meeting that need, for me and you is not difficult, because it is very easy to do, but we do not know about the leaf they choose, or a convenient location for their future child. Even so I intended to place it in a dense reed, if I walked about 100 meters from where I was standing.

However, I put it off for about 3 minutes, because I really like seeing him when he is in another location, which he walks from my hand to the other arm.

She is very beautiful with wings that expand as she walks and moves, looks very weak and is very limping, like a sick person, she needs help to carry her to the plant concerned. Then I took it while stealing the opportunity to take a picture of it, and my intention worked, I managed to get some of the pictures I meant.

Then how when he was at the location of the plants, and how he was next. So in this case will be conveyed in the explanation that will come...
Thank you for your willingness to read this story. Will continue to the next episode...
