Another amazing butterfly I spotted at Canalendres. I was hoping to post this with an ID but I have search learnaboutbutterflies.com and I can't find a match. My last 500 spottings have been from my 2012/13 trip to Colombia and Dominica, with about 100 spots from Dominica and the rest from Colombia. Stay tuned as I still have about 500 more spots from this trip! Spotting #2000!!!!
Thanks Ashley and thanks J for your very kind words! Glad I could be of inspiration. Maybe our paths will cross one day in the tropics.
Marvelous! Congratulations on such an awesome achievement and thanks for sharing your incredible tropical adventures with us all! You've truly inspired me to visit the tropics some day! Thank you! :-)
Congratulations Dan on your #2000. Great achievement and all are wonderful!
Thanks bayucca, now I have a name for #2000. The one in the link is in pretty rough shape, eh.
Yeah, very similar Juan. I did see your species on learnaboutbutterflies.com but couldn't find this one.
This skipper is very similar to one I spoted some months ago, I guess they are the same genus, at least. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/171...
