I don't think I've seen that species of butterfly before - I assume they were at Toohey Forest?

Thanks Stephen! Yes, we walk there reasonably frequently and often see these delightful creatures busily flitting around some of the lesser walked paths. They are very mobile and only settle briefly, so they had appeared quite elusive until this pair parked itself when I happened to have the 40D and 70-200 F4 L at hand. This was some 500m into the forest off Monash Road/Isabella Street.
I managed to squeeze off half a dozen shots and this was the best of the bunch. The IS really comes into its own when in the shade, even though Toohey Forest is reasonably open and thin in terms of the canopy.
Cheers
Dennis
