| Potanthus serina | 09a 09 2024 | North Aceh Regency, Aceh, Indonesia |
Today, during a short walk around a small garden near my house, I found a tiny figure that caught my attention. A Potanthus serina butterfly with its golden brown and shiny orange patterned wings was seen perched on a fresh green leaf, as if enjoying the beauty of nature around it.
This butterfly, despite its small size, looked so strong and confident. I was lucky enough to catch a moment when it took a break on the leaves, with both of its wings slightly torn but still looking charming. This shows that it may have gone through many journeys, adventuring from one plant to another in its daily search for nectar.
The contrasting colors on its wings, combined with the green background of the leaves, create a stunning visual harmony. The Potanthus serina may not be as famous as other large butterflies, but its hidden beauty makes it so special. Every stroke on its wings seems to tell a story of an outdoor adventure.
