A butterfly at my computer table

I was reading a science article and then sudden a butterfly came and sat on my computer table. Immediately, I took my android phone and captured some photographs of it. Although my mobile camera is not so powerful, I tried to take macro images. It has one rear and one front camera. But it doesn't have optical lens. However, my mobile camera features digital zoom.

I quickly took some photographs before the butterfly left. But I picked up four quality photographs among them and shared here. My motive was to take macro photographs so that his small organs such as eyes can be seen easily. Unfortunately, the butterfly had sat at very near my UPS. that's why I couldn't take its photographs from front side. Only this direction was perfect to capture the photos of this butterfly. If I would remove UPS from there, I could have probably taken pictures from the front side. But I didn't want to waste my time. I thought if I would try to remove UPS from there, the butterfly would leave.

It was sitting very close to mobile charging cable. It is clearly visible in the photographs. I don't know how many legs a butterfly has. But the photographs show that it has five legs. The wonderful feature of these photographs is the shadow of the butterfly's wings that can be clearly seen on the table.

Their wings look like very thin and transparent. Yet it supports them to fly in the air. May be his body also light weighted.
