I don't think it will ever happen in my garden. As for the last photo, is it a butterfly or a moth? I posted that on my blog on 9 Aug 2010. If you like its markings, you should see what is on the underside of the wings. :)Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12919719601969345138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1213208274796269896.post-83283960385708158842010-09-03T11:38:28.070+05:302010-09-03T11:38:28.070+05:30Dear Friends,Thanks for all your wonderful comment...Dear Friends,Thanks for all your wonderful comments, which make my day.

They were brought in to rid the island of rats, but that seem not to be working. The rats and the mongoose (their cousins) have become friends. I wish I had more colourful birds like you Lotusleaf.islandgal246https://www.blogger.com/profile/09139072456332225087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1213208274796269896.post-45624727245641758902010-09-01T18:15:46.134+05:302010-09-01T18:15:46.134+05:30Great shot of the parrot.

Pests, indeed! <br /><br />The butterfly looks like the Chocolate Pansy but I'm not 100% sure. Used to be commonly seen in my yard but I don't think I spotted it this year.
