Good evening,
I thought I would post this image tonight. It shows the insect sipping moisture from the soil. There were
many areas of exposed damp soil, but they seemed to be drawn to one spot close to the edge of the track.
I know its not the best image ever, the sun was very high by now and there was an awful lot of glare.
Thanks for looking and for all the kind comments on my recent uploads.
Colin

it is a very interesting image, the detail is excellent. I have seen the bees dring form soil after we watered the ground but never observed the butterflies doing it.
There you go, I have learned something!
