Yellow Orange Tip

Lxias pyrene (Linnaeus)

Habitat:

Bush along river bank.

Notes:

I was busy casting my lines for Mahseer by River Arun off Manakamana, north of Tumlingtar in Nepal, this beauty distracted my attention. I kept my tackle down, took out my camera and tried some photos by following this pretty lady. By the time I got a few satisfactory shots I'd spent two hours without realising it! It doesn't open its wings more than this, less than 90 degrees.
