And the beauty of the day: Cacyreus Marshalli. (Geranium Bronze) is a butterfly in the family Lycaenidae. Presumed to have arrived from South Africa on imported Pelargonium plants. Frequently found around habitations. Rarely opens its wings when taking nectar, but will show its uppersides when basking in sunshine, usually on leaves or grasses.
