Polygonia c-album aka Comma Butterfly

At first you might say, what impressive has this butterfly? Why the goal? We have seen many of these on our friend's posts (if you remember).

this is really a goal. I'm sure any Portuguese Photographer would love to take a picture of this butterfly in Portuguese lands. This butterfly, day by day, is getting very very rare..there are few records about it in my country. Even if the pictures are not the best, to me is a big goal!

Wow, what a beautiful creature - congratulations on your achievement! :-) girafferacing · 2011-06-10: 17:55

Reparei que estas borboletas tem muito a mania de pousar no chão ou na relva por grande alegria dos meus gatos..! Unchained · 2011-06-15: 04:50
