Cairns Birdwing female

This is largest butterfly species in Australia. The female is larger than the more colourful male (further on in gallery), having a wingspan of 150 mm and a head-body length of about 55 mm.

This will be my last posting for quite some time as I’m heading to Indonesia for four weeks.

other sizes: small medium original auto

Fantastic shot of this beautiful big butterfly. She certainly chose a colourful flower on which to nectar. Indonesia sounds like an intriguing destination! V
