Bread & Butter - _TNY_1242

The two clearly most common butterflies at the Haga Ocean butterfly house are these two which were sharing a meal when I came by.

 

On the left is a Pale giant owl butterfly (Caligo telamonius memnon) and on the right is a Peleides blue morpho (Morpho peleides).

 

Though both are probably prettiest when seen from above, the ventral sides seen here are rather spectacular - especially with both species being so large. Which do you think looks better?
