Blue Morpho

Blue Morpho

Ay carambo, this butterfly (the Blue Morpho, or Morpho granadensis in Latin) was not selling itself short. Always on the move, never sitting down, and when on rare occasion it did sit down it would fold its wings up — and the underside was not as pretty. Took a lot of patience waiting to find one sitting down and spreading its wings out. But what a reward.
