Hello all, another very successful Butterfly Safari in France, despite the heat I found and photographed my principal target species for July plus many others, C oedippus was by far the most challenging of the species seen requiring a chase across terrain that would have been fit for a commando training course,temperatures around 40 degrees C !!!. Was it worth the effort I will let the viewers decide.You can see these beautiful Papillons on my website by clicking on the following links.
