Our winter butterflies
Originally posted by kmaal at Наша зима / Our winter
For some days a butterfly used to perch on our neighbour's mango tree. Isn't it this butterfly that (with its brethren) recently ate the young shoots on another mango tree in front of my window, which now started growing again and shows tender fresh leaves? And in other neighbour's garden small mangoes hang already from the branches... And we'll have none this year - our tree is still recovering after the owner's pruning.
And at the bush at our porch started blooming, so it attracts some Lepidoptera too.

This is in Eastern Thailand, South-East Asia.
What species might these be?
