Re: Butterfly Iridescent Wing Scale.

That’s very close up, but difficult to tell what it is or where it’s from.

I only recently spotted the scales in some one of my recent photos, I hadn’t actually thought how  their wings were constructed till then

It’d  be great if you could show a few pics to tell the story of what we’re looking at, eg the wing, a close up showing lots of scales, and then the above image
