ok maybe not - a tailed emperor butterfly though :)

If you ever have any really over-ripe bananas in the house - leave them outside - these guys (and many other insects) love fermenting fruit and will come down and feed for ages :) Not a great shot I know - taken with a 80-200 with flash, while standing on a chair and trying not to fall off LOL

I like!. Very simple construction and muted colours.

She's back - I'm now keeping one banana in a plastic bag for it intentionally to go 'bad' - hopefully she's laying in the brachychiton tree out the front and we'll get even more lovely butterflies hanging around :)
