When I was about to rest during the day, a pair of butterflies from nowhere landed on the grass near my hut, I had never experienced an opportunity like this before, and it would be a shame if a rare moment like this was missed, therefore, even though I was tired still trying to get some pictures ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-47-900.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmaokawmchusyCNCcz8uy5PVbbEtUvZ1URbjCAqvZvyzat/Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-47-900.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-33-815.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmc6tEdFzbo1XoXqvK7V9PqZrsfxgTwVidUaB8evgCi1jf/Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-33-815.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_12-45-03-966.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmaQV1xdjmMrjUjhbdR52esNoKNWrtJvRsY3oGm5RfRdBy/Picsart_24-02-11_12-45-03-966.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-11-54-801.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmTWEHLHNqkxpPq2iqUg4oHijcFcQ8fNy2biuCmjY4YFuH/Picsart_24-02-11_10-11-54-801.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_12-48-42-925.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmSFvzpqmfRWnRMKAdviEp8jn9kK3MxvBFUL4ApAe5DqkY/Picsart_24-02-11_12-48-42-925.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-05-784.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmSRir5hwztQjn2dzSATdos9zC94qhqzhdaKFZFHUV8Mtd/Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-05-784.jpg) I have seen this butterfly very often, but this is the first time I have seen it this close and clearly, approaching a butterfly is not an easy thing, and someone once said that butterflies don't need to be chased, they will come to you themselves, and that term is really happening now This butterfly is known as the pastur butterfly which has the Latin name [Papilio memnon](https://id.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kupu-pastur), and this pair of butterflies has different colors- different, but both are still very beautiful Butterflies are a beautiful species of insect, especially in the mixture of colors found on their bodies, and if I read correctly, for the type of butterfly butterfly, the female has a greater combination of colors than the male, but to be honest, I can't tell the difference between male and female for this butterfly I found ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-10-711.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmPwUdjQ5qpQ2Nut48Etrji5ky8U1rYGwvyoA3Pz64GcJF/Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-10-711.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-58-365.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmaDMdv43B6BD58Kdb2yBJ3SYBPBC7SYsjby6BqmbKanqr/Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-58-365.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-48-581.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQ28cwvoW4ZAiDqZN62YbrfA953Se4dhVnJTyAsHsdTco/Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-48-581.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-37-962.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmYtDv2u3yLEmru9juP1FFUoUo9UHg1t7Q4Vvf8Cye77t5/Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-37-962.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-27-901.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmXPmrJmsq6r3USvSYoRznF4XZgVJBkQ8XnnjhqrJtchdU/Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-27-901.jpg) Strangely, the butterflies didn't fly at all even though I disturbed them and even touched them. It seems like this mating process takes a long time, because I myself saw them just running around, but not leaving at all. If I were to guess, the one below is a female, because the color is brighter and also has a lot of mixed colors, but I can't guarantee certainty, especially since their size is almost the same ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-18-517.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQMfPBHxdYwqkFrBHHYG6XP6FQugTbVQptSpZFw9XECi9/Picsart_24-02-11_10-12-18-517.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-21-671.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmddowpX2UCjLnrftRUHJDMFz3kD3L7zVqSvGNbxozwzNy/Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-21-671.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-58-102.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbeS3WEMvGDUuC1yqm2V5weN83DEm1RhadHcJX9xPL7WQ/Picsart_24-02-11_10-13-58-102.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-14-18-271.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmW6tSoPC1SCnDMj2nUHHGWP9DDWSGK2igTtMCEcvfs4pC/Picsart_24-02-11_10-14-18-271.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-14-08-520.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmdDra1taVozVt2sEwsdjRcZjbyM43fKpeyUcp1qq27vDV/Picsart_24-02-11_10-14-08-520.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-14-56-992.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmYo2cavsQGqBM5m8aZywQz6W6YkPVoYRDuGd8E8ERAEda/Picsart_24-02-11_10-14-56-992.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-15-09-412.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbhbWDCRJu9zHyWVEsk92Zd53fFj8Foe2PvwRw9Q19Dj6/Picsart_24-02-11_10-15-09-412.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-15-31-750.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmUNbLyn1BtPVKZNgswJmwzqqBw2NkKzTpfpBMXZ4LRpSu/Picsart_24-02-11_10-15-31-750.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-15-21-929.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbbtkNb6Beaty32NmDRFo8iomt3jEsSUoJtJVWvcyFnXo/Picsart_24-02-11_10-15-21-929.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_10-14-36-741.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmSmmunrEHxZZXcziL1ZPJ1Gd6K6ar4nh7KPxdrH42QpiR/Picsart_24-02-11_10-14-36-741.jpg) ![Picsart_24-02-11_12-56-26-551.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQdxwS1HjVbrhjy6hWZ1BSWWAEWPXmrwV1JCjKRaqU9it/Picsart_24-02-11_12-56-26-551.jpg) This fertilization process is really long, I can even freely photograph them, although maybe that's a little too much, but it would be a shame if a moment like this is missed, it's rare to be able to get close to a butterfly, especially this beautiful type of butterfly. Coincidentally, I also brought a lens at that time, but because the size of this butterfly is very large for macrophotography objects, I couldn't photograph it in detail, especially since I was still in the learning stage for the world of photography, and even though it was ugly, those were the photos that I managed to get it Of course there are still many shortcomings that I have, and this is also the first time I am sharing a post here, I would be very grateful if you are willing to comment on my post, I really need suggestions as encouragement, and I am also running out of words, maybe that's all this time
