Yellow-streaked Swift

I never imagined this rainforest skipper would turn up in my garden.
First seen here this wet season, they've been persistent and must surely be breeding somewhere nearby.
So I've recently planted the caterpillar foodplant in anticipation that they might turn up again.

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Sharp shot of this pretty skipper. Sounds like it was a good idea to plant the foodplant.

a delightful visitor...perhaps the caterpillars will prove good subjects later on..
