As a matter of small interest, the two butterflies were perched in the same small bush.

Very likely the same species as in your other sighting (small ant at top right of photo was noted) however, I assume nothing when all points for a positive species id are missing.

Yep. Agree 100%. It is always nice to have a positive ID but one of the true values of NatureMapr is no guessing! It was interesting to see how tolerant the butterfly was of the ants.
