Simply gorgeous! I have never seen a butterfly with colourations this wonderful before. I really like the startling contrast between the black, red, and white of the butterfly's wings. So pretty.

Amelia, more insight about this butterfly:
'The Common Windmill Atrophaneura polyeuctes is the commonest member in India of the Windmills group of Atrophaneura, comprising tailed black swallowtail butterflies with white spots and red submarginal crescents.
Length 110 to 140mm.
Sexes alike.
Black and white above with prominent swallowtail.
Red bodied. Tail has a red tip'.
Surprisingly, this butterfly is very common in the place where i live, in India.

One more thing, when i searched in google with your title, your name and site appeared in the google as the 3rd article.
I felt happy to see ameliasantos name...
