Staying with the butterflies.
I have seen this one also described as a Tree Nymph or Rice Paper Butterfly. I like its distinctive markings.
Another one taken at St. Albans Butterfly World in Hertfordshire.

It is amazing how you do these, Pamela. Breathtaking. I love these tree nymphs. In the Fragile Forest in the Singapore Zoo, you can see them lazily flapping around, not bothered by people. In fact, I was taking a pic of one who'd settled on a bed of gerberas laid out for it, and another landed on my forehead!
