Sorry, this is from December last year, I am catching up with some photos I have. This Bold Phratria was on the brickwork of our house one morning. It was on a wall facing the sunrise but in an area that was going to be in the shade. Interestingly, given the bad camouflage clash, it was in the same spot for most of the day so I wondered if it had just finished its transformation from a caterpillar and was waiting for the energy from external warmth so it could fly off.
