Hi all - I doubt those of you in the UK are seeing many butterflies at the moment, so I thought I'd share a few pics I took in Koh Samui back in early December

Excellent photos Sooty; brings back some fond memories!

Cheers,

For me, too... How long did you have to wait for the Psyche to land? . Club Silverlines were very common in Manila, when I was there, but you were lucky to find a Fluffy Tit with all its tails. A welcome post in the middle of a drear February - many thanks.

Like Pete, I got to meet Les Day at Hin Lad waterfall. Not a bad spot, but apparently it would have been much more productive if I'd gone there in Jan - March.

The Psyche is a bit of a tease; they were very common but not all that keen on landing. I found the overcast days were better for getting shots of them. Of course the best day would have been the one that was so heavily overcast I didn't take a camera, and so I missed out on several Psyche photo opportunities.

There were quite a few Club Silverlines in the vacant block just across the road from my hotel. Gorgeous little things.

The Fluffy Tits were spectacular. I saw a mating pair, both of them were great specimens. Unfortunately I spooked them trying to get a photo; the pic is basically a mass of swirling tails

Thanks Sooty, those pictures certainly cheered me up on a bleak Scottish day!
