Blue Morpho

Taken in the butterfly house at Butterfly World St.Albans.
I first went there about this time last year but didn't manage to get any shots of the Blue Morphos with their wings open because they were all folding them the instant they landed. This year they were all happily displaying the lovely blue of the topsides of their wings.
The undersides are completely different : http://365project.org/dulciknit/365/2012-06-26

You'd hardly believe they were the same butterfly - so glad you posted both photos. Bet you had a wonderful day.
