A pair of beautiful butterflies are making love on a leaf

yesterday afternoon the weather was a little brighter than the usual rainy season, I tried to look for some insects in the garden because usually in sunny weather I find many insects easily, in contrast to rainy weather where it is difficult to find them

Not long after I was in the garden I saw a pair of butterflies making love flying right in front of me and stopped on a very tall tree, I tried to disturb them using wood, several times failed they continued to move with a fast flying style.

I continued to follow and walk slowly with patience, after a while I was finally able to aim my shot closer to the butterfly and immediately took several random shots quickly, Even though it was a little closed, I continued to try to take a position where these two butterflies could be seen

The size of this butterfly is so big that I had difficulty taking photos so that I could fully see the two butterflies. From their color texture, you can clearly see some of them, one color is a bit faded, the other is dark brown, with several beautiful motifs on the wings, I accidentally stepped on a tree branch which made them fly but not very far and stood on a leaf on the same tree

they were standing at the very tip of the leaves, it was so hard to get some close up shots especially the sunlight was so bright, I could only take random shots

Even though they have moved several times, they still continue to fly together. This butterfly is included in the butterfly species Junonia atlites a butterfly that has such beautiful motifs and colors, I dared to pull off the leaf where the butterfly was standing, slowly I aimed it towards me so that I managed to take a more perfect shot than my previous few shots.

I kept trying to direct them closer to me and tried to get my finger closer with the aim that they would stand on my finger but I failed, even so I felt happy to be able to take so many shots before they flew away
