- Question Laying an egg? A little over-saturated I think, though no flash recorded. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:18, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Charlesjsharp: , that is not laying eggs. The butterfly is puddling on a bird dropping and excreting excess fluid (seen as a bubble) from its anal region which is a biological function of Hesperiidae and some other butterflies. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 04:24, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
