Hasn't voted | Thank you fro the nice comment. We have seen this butterfly this summer also for the first time ever even though we have been hiking for many years now. There is also very similar species (Hoedes virguareae) living in Poland that we also managed to photograph. Greetings, Henryk. | | Posted Sep 30, 2008 2:50 am |
