It's Just Resting, Pt. 3 - _TNY_6604
Since you aren't allowed to handle the butterflies at the Haga Ocean butterfly house (and most other butterfly houses, I imagine), here someone had attempted to help a malachite (Siproeta stelenes) off the path by using a green leaf and then just placing the leaf on top of a log where it wouldn't be stepped on.
It stayed here for a little while so I could set up for multiple shots before flying off again.
