Butterfies of Wadalba
for the past 8 years i have been taking random pics of lepidoptera when i have seen them - as the hill at Wadalba is considered a butterfly hilltopping site, a photo record of what i have seen here is overdue - some of these pics are of unidentified species, if you know what they are, please tell me.
some are also not in good focus - its hard to photograph a fast insect.
this work would not have been possible without the knowledge, support and encouragement of Don Herbison-Evans http://www-staff.it.uts.edu.au/~don/
