Orange Oakleaf Butterfly
Common Name: Orange Oakleaf Butterfly
Scientific Name: Kallima inachus
Size: 55-75mm (wingspan)
Location: Begnas, Pokhara, Nepal
While mountain biking down to Begnas from Kalika Danda, on my first pass I thought it was a leaf but to clear up my doubts came back up again and saw this beautiful Oakleaf Butterfly soaking up the sun. Certainly the biggest butterfly I had seen for the time being. These Oakleaf Butterfly falls under the family NYMPHALIDAE and have four legs.
