Butterfly ..Zebra Heliconium

Well you certainly do not see these beauties in my garden.

I saw them in the little butterfly house at the rather splendid Hortus Botanicus which is a surprisingly rich and varied garden in the centre of Amsterdam.

I have mixed feelings about taking photographs of animals in captivity though I guess it feels less improper to imprison a butterfly than it does a Lion. Not a logical position I know…….
