Acraea pharsalus
Description:
This guy was a real fight. It was flying around the same bush all the time - even resting on it, when resting. But it always closed in between some seconds. And the autofocus of the 180 mm macro can be very slow if needed fast... So I needed quite some time to get this somehow useful and cropped photo of the open-winged. Having ten or fifteen children around me commenting on every move I did. (It was in the middle of a village.)
