Butterfly eyes…

Dear All, thanks for your kind comments about the Butterflion. If you are in Nairobi please go and visit him at the Sarit Centre outside the Text Book Centre. Here are some close-up pictures of butterflies that I took over the last couple of days. The pictures show their amazing compound eyes and mouthparts - which consist of a long tubular proboscis. More soon - enjoy the weekend!calotropis-eyes-lr1.jpgdardanus-close-uplr2.jpgdardanus-close-uplr1.jpgjunonia-close-uplr1.jpg
