   Wow, that is truly lovely. I would love to see one flying. I bet that there is more yellow under those wings!!

      This is the only one I’ve ever seen. It is similar to the Golden Birdwing https://mybutterflycollection.com/2013/05/25/golden-birdwing-troides-aeacus-aeacus/ Yes, Lots of yellow under there. Eric Danell at Dok Mai Gardens told me that during the start of the rainy season, around the beginning of May, he has loads of them in the garden. I’d love to see them then. Hopefully we’ll see some good butterflies when we are back in Thailand in June. http://dokmaidogma.wordpress.com/
