Du Toit's Kloof Pass 1 Year ago Karma: 8
Made a quick trip to Du Toit's Kloof Pass this morning in pursuit of Holmes' Skolly Thestor holmesi. Special thanks to Andrew for the directions! I was towards the end of their flight season though Andrew has found worn specimens in mid-February. I found a total of 6 specimens in 90 minutes - some were very worn though some were quite fresh. They were reasonably cooperative for photos though no open wing shots (I never even saw one open its wings except to fly).


Nice fresh specimen.


A slightly worn specimen - see the scales missing on the hind wing.
