Plenty of these migrant butterflies flying through Canberra at the moment. I estimate I saw 100 as i walked the loop here. At any point in time i could see 1 to 7 butterflies. If you stood still there was a constant stream of them flying by, stopping on the abundant flowers available at the moment.
