Country: Netherlands

here is one more postcard to my butterfly collection. This butterfly has almost black-and-white colors, but looks so great in any case!

The Eastern Festoon (Allancastria cerisyi) is an Old World papilionid butterfly whose geographical range extends from the Balkans to include Turkey and the near Middle East. It exhibits several geographical variants. It is named for Alexandre Louis Lefèbvre de Cérisy.

The wingspan is 52–62 mm. The butterfly flies from March to July depending on the location.

Here are some new Dutch stamps:
