Notes
On my first ever trip to Cairns there were quite a lot of Lurchers on the wing, and I took a number of not very good photos in the park across the road from the Botanic Gardens early on the first morning. They’ve been less numerous and less approachable on subsequent visits.
Fresh specimens are very attractive butterflies, as per the one I photographed at Chinaman Creek in April 2021.
