Mysterious fly/butterfly Kas Turkey
This greeted us at the top of the cliff after our morning walk above Kas this morning. It was so difficult to chose a shot. Please take a look at the full wing span here.
Finally found the name - Nemoptera Bipennis, where the vestigial wings at the back are used as stabilisors in flight. These have been reported in Spain, Portugal and France so no wonder I could not find it under Turkey! Large is better to see the flower it seemed to be laying eggs on.
HOW CAN I ADD LINKS USING BLIPPHOTO OR BLIPSTER APP?
