And when trying to discover what the other side of the Indian Leaf Butterfly looked like,

I came across this site (http://www.magicoflife.org/butterfly_gallery.html), with even more images to peruse.... Unfortunately for us, it's in Wales... but it made me itchy to go visit the Niagara Parks Butterfly Conservatory (http://www.niagarafallslive.com/butterfly_conservatory_in_niagara_falls.htm) in Niagara Falls, Ontario...
