Is it my imagination, or does this guy look like he's trying to tell me something? View larger to see the expression on this butterflies face. Thanks for the comments, too.

He's got quite the eye! and even a nice smile on his face. Very nice photo. And the colour of this butterfly is unusual too or it is to me who has never seen this before.

You make me envious, Jimbob. I have been also in a butterfly park but they didn't have so many nice varieties as yours. Very good capture of this beauty with such excellent clarity.

Looks like it is sticking its tongue out at you JimboB. I didn't realize they had tongues. I guess it is for lapping up all that pollen or whatever. Such an unusual color and those red antennae are to die for.

Have a good weekend.

Lovely shot of this little character. He does look like he is talking to you, unless it was swearing at you in butterfly language!!! ha ha

I think he is, but I don't know what the message is. Unless he's thanking you for taking this nice shot. NIce close up.
