Blue Tiger Butterflies
Saturday, May 24, 2008
Reading this brought some old memories when we had stumbled into an army of butterflies outside Bangalore. Amateurs, with a new found interest, we were gallivanting with camera in the arm searching for lakes, birds and the like. Walking aimlessly, we entered into a wooded area with tall casuarinas and were surprised to see butterflies hugging every inch of trees. Here is an image from the days when I had just bought my first and only film camera.
There was another time I had stumbled upon loads and loads of butterflies. Driving through the forests of Bandipur, we encountered and endless stream of Blue Tigers. Now that I recall it, I am craving to see the spectacle again.

I see you have stumble upon. What's your user named?
Matt, it is arunchs. Not much in use.
Hey Arun!
was going thru all your photos and writeups... needless to say that visiting your blogs is a cool alternative to actually going and visiting those places!
and the huge swarm of butterflies might very well be a butterfly migration. The best time to catch up with the spectacle would be sometime in april last week and again september when the next generation heads back.
I saw a huge moving butterfly party in the last week of april right in the middle of bangalore(IISC campus/Mekhri circle) in the last week of april.
