I believe that's a Buckeye Cecilia. And a very beautiful one at that!
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown

It definitely looks like a Buckeye. I just don't know if it's the same species as the one in North America or a "cousin" of sorts. Pretty, though!

I don't know its name.
There is another one that is very similar but it has brighter colors. I posted a photo last year.

Is anyone having trouble getting ATP to load? I'm using Chrome but I opened Internet Explorer in order to post this.
