Oh Doux... what a lovely delicate little butterfly and such pretty pastel colours too.

A super shot this one lass - very well done for getting your first image of it.
 
Beautiful image, Duha, I'm always a little jealous at this time of the year as over here we won't see them again for another 5 months or so.
