Sorry as well, I didn't find the time to do my little re-search about these ones. But I will not forget and he will not fly away...

sorry bayucca, I took this photo the morning of the day I left France, and couldn't get a shot of it with closed wings. So not even an out of focus one available, and no chance to find it again!

I think this might be the same one as previous posted. Any ventral shots?? If not go out to get one ;-)... Would be very interesting to compare the other side, even if it is not a very sharp one.
