Two Blue
Uploaded: October 31, 2003
Taken this week at the Texas Discovery Gardens... The bottom Blue Morpho was trying to court the top one...he kept flying around and finally I guess gave it up and just decided to rest...Felt very fortunate to get this shot with two because they normally do not stay still. Also, the other side of their wings are brown.. From Central America...

Great shot, Dottie! #251599Jeff Robinson October 31, 2003
Nice job Dottie! I love Texas Discovery Gardens when they have the butterflies! The Blue Morph's can be very difficult to catch with their wings open! You did great! Jeff #251621Dottie Shepherd October 31, 2003
