Not another one!?

I couldn't resist - I saw a butterfly like this for the first time yesterday, stopped the car and ran back, but it had disappeared. And then today another one not only appeared in our garden, but actually stayed in one place long enough for me to get several photos.

The usual Monday frustrations trying to get things done before going back down the hill to Rio. I hadn't expected to be working, but a friend asked for some help and I can't afford to turn away work. Still, I stole away enough time finally to plant out the seedlings I bought weeks ago, and we visited our invalid friend o the way down.
