Junonia almana, the peacock pansy, is a species of nymphalid butterfly.
It exists in two distinct adult forms, which differ chiefly in the patterns on the underside of the wings; the dry-season form has few markings, while the wet-season form has additional eyespots and lines.
common blue male
I haven't cropped this picture because I find the butterfly enchantingly beautiful in its habitat.

Ich habe diese Aufnahme nicht beschnitten, weil ich den Schmetterling in seinem Lebensraum bezaubernd schön finde.
I hope you are all having a nice week. I am very sore and needing some chocolate but I am starting a healthy eating plan ~which means chocolate is off limits !!
Posing perfectly at a slight angle, this is my third and last image in this Wild Geranium series. Photographed with my 105mm macro lens in our patio garden.
Have a great weekend, everyone...
Male gerenuk or giraffe-necked (Litocranius walleri) male with short, heavily ringed horns that curve elegantly backwards in an S-shape. The gerenuk is unique among antelopes for its ability to stand vertically on its hind legs to reach high-growing foliage.

Thank you for your views and comments. They are all greatly appreciated.
The delicate petals of this petite camellia are interweaving my dreams while I appreciate her charm.
Growing in our flower garden this past spring...
Geranium maculatum, commonly known as Hardy, Perennial, or Spotted Geranium, are not the Annual Geranium most people know and plant in pots during the summer. To avoid the mixup, those misnamed plants now are called Pelargoniums, which is their true botanical name.
The true Geranium you see above is not only profuse in its lovely flowers, but their foliage is also very attractive and beautiful.
Enjoy this close-up view :)
Quite amazing to watch him (male sparrowhawk) clean his feathers and pick bits of his kill from between his talons. A great experience (for me)! PS, it is just a larger crop of my previous post.
