At midday it was a bright blue sky, gentle gusts of the wind didn't reduce the heat of the weather. In my yard, my eyes caught a beautiful sight. A pair of little creatures in love, they look very romantic. Yes, they are mating in the grass.

They are a pair of Eastern Striped Albatross (Appias olferna) belonging to the family Pieridae. The male has white wings with black stripes, while the female has yellow and white wings with black stripes.

When I was busy taking pictures, suddenly they moved from the grass and perched on starfruit leaves. I was lucky that they didn't fly far, so I was able to continue to capture the beautiful moment.
