Paper Kite

Paper Kite
Taken in the ENMAX Conservatory at the Calgary Zoo on 25 September 2012. These butterflies are also known as Rice Paper, or Large Tree Nymph butterfly. Of Southeast Asian origin, it is especially known for its presence in butterfly greenhouses. I've found that this species is usually seen with its wings closed, like in my photo, showing the ventral view. I'll add a previously posted photo showing the wings spread, in a comment box below.

Happy day! I've just found out that if you click on the row of three dots, then RIGHT click on Edit Date, you can open the photo in another tab or window and simply copy all the tags from there. When pasted in the tags of a new photo, they post perfectly. This was one of the things I really did not like about the new Flickr experience, until today, so that's one less thing to dislike. Maybe everyone already knows this, lol!
