- I have lived and worked in Japan. The father of 5 children, and married.
When I visited Fukuoka last year, I was most fortunate to photograph this lovely butterfly near the botanical garden. I was walking uphill from subway station and there it was, basking in the sun. It was quite cooperative letting me take its photograph. Thank you for the scientific and common name in Japanese.
