Butterfly - Punggol 21

A kid was chasing after this butterfly around a patch of ixora shrubs and trying to catch it while his parents were chatting nearby. ER and I could see that he was having a wonderful time. At a closer look, we found that this insect was one of the more beautiful species we had ever seen here. As the butterfly was flying and fluttering above the sparsely flowering ixora shrubs, I had to speak with him in order to take this photo. “Please wait a while and let us take a photo of it.” He obliged and later smilingly waving to us as we left the common greens.
