88 butterfly

Description:

red and black butterfly with what appears to be 88 or 89 on its underside

Habitat:

hibiscus hedge next to lodge

Notes:

This one flitted a lot and didn't land for long, so I was lucky to get these two shots after about 40 minutes of camera chasing

That is a wild looking butterfly I can tell why it's called an 88 butterfly because of the eight pattern on either side of its wings. Nice.
