Flutter is the sound these guys make when they find themselves trapped in a corner of ones thatch roof. Flutter goes on all night and no matter how hard one tries to find him he can not be detected, until the next morning when it is too late. The upside is that by this time he is so fatigued that he becomes extremely cooperative and makes an excellent photographic model. That his wings were not shredded given all the noise all night long is a mystery. He really is a beautiful subject. I enjoyed photographing him after which he was released into the undergrowth outside.

I followed this specimen through the scrub near the Chapel Santa Maria at Lebena. A burst of shots at a high shutter speed captured this picture, mid-flutter, giving a good view of the colouration on its abdomen.
This was taken with my Lensbaby Muse and Nikon D200.
A Butterfly Hovers Closely
A butterfly hovers closely
And then quickly moves away,
Swiftly going where so ever
Her heart may freely say.
A butterfly lowers and rises
With the winds's gusty breath,
As if coupled within a dance
Of a loving tenderness.
The butterfly only knows
How it feels to have wings,
To kiss the petals of flowers
In such elegant flitterings.
To have but one moment
Of such an exquisite flight,
Would be like a dream
Where all seems so right.
