This is a butterfly that has a very small size, it can fly very fast because of its small size, and that is one of its advantages. I managed to find this butterfly in my cocoa plantation, from some of the pictures that I will share, we can see that these are two butterflies that are mating. Initially I had experienced several failures when trying to approach it, this butterfly continued to fly and avoid me, but because this butterfly was mating so their movements were a little slower. After successfully approaching this butterfly, I immediately tried to photograph it, so that the results I got looked maximum and detailed, I also tried to photograph it using the help of a macro lens.

Its small size made me a little overwhelmed when photographing it, I tried to do my best, but at that time I only managed to photograph this butterfly from one side, namely the left side, but when I saw the results I was immediately amazed and satisfied.
Okay everyone, now I will share some images of two butterflies mating here.
