Our meeting was accidental this morning, when his wings were still wet from the morning dew, he was really helpless on the leaves, he was just silent when I approached and took pictures with my cellphone, without much movement I was very free to capture some photos.

I picked it up and put it on my finger it looked he was still very tame, and again I took some pictures, after a while he started to move a lot, and flew to some plants, the wet wings had started to dry, he looked aggressive when I just approached he flew back.
