It was drizzling so I had to head back to the office. On my way to the office, I saw a brightly colored creature fly. “I’ve never seen that bird before. Now, where did it go?” I scanned the branches of the trees and looked for movement but found no such bird. Something yellow caught my eye. Flutterby, I meant, butterfly! There’s a bright yellow butterfly sipping nectar from the white flowers, I thought.

The common name of Phalanta phalanta is Common Leopard.
Because of my height and the relative position of the lepidopteran, I can only see parts of it. The body is like that of a bumblebee, yellow with black bands. The lepidopteran is dominantly yellow. The basal part of the forewings and the hind wings are yellow with black markings. The top/ upper half of the forewings are mainly black with white markings.

MSC on its 25th year held its annual acquaintance day celebration, last June 20, 2014, Friday, with its actively participating faculty, staff and students.
Yells and shouts filled the hall in the afternoon with the games presented by each group with the winners receiving prizes.
