Mourning Cloak On Fallen Log
This butterfly didn't perch for long, but it did keep coming back to the path. My strategy with Butterflies is to start taking photos, even when I'm quite far away so that I have "something". Tags: dorsal

False Tiger Moth
I have seen these moths on my last few visit - they are large, brightly coloured and active during the day. I had tried taking photos while they were in flight, but they are so active I always failed. This trip I tried harder to find them on plants and had some luck! Species: Dysphania militaris (False Tiger Moth)

Blue Tiger
At first I didn't realize there there were a variety of "Tiger"'s - Black with light colours. The reserve had a sign showing a few of the species - Ceylon Blue, Blue, Dark Blue, Glassy and more. I tried harder to take photos of each one I saw. Species: Tirumala limniace (blue tiger)
