A bunch of puddling Rajah Brooke's birdwing butterflies (Trogonoptera brookiana). Can you spot the two odd ones?

Beautiful butterfly. It was kind enough to stop for a couple of shots. A female Sithon nedymond nedymond - The Plush.

A little way down from the top left corner, just below the three lily(?) leaves, the two objects that look like parts of a fern? These are all great shots, Kurt. Beautifully exposed and well captured.

Would love to see some of the butterflies seen in the first shots, close up.

The coloring on those is amazing.

Ditto. I would like to see their red faces. I see one on the far right that is all black. Not sure about the second odd one.
