Came across this beauty along the denser portion of the trail, while it seemed to be resting on the edge of the leaf. Though initially thought to be sleepy, due to not flying off while approaching it, but eventually it did give us some though time to get a close up shot. Though after few attempts, it seemed to be comfortable with our intrusion and happily gave poses, while it seemed to clean itself, majorly its eyes and its front limb(seen in the frame)
On a closer frame, the beauty seemed to be more devilish with its vampire like protrusion in the front and the rubbing of hand gesture(clichéd for the evil intentions)

The frontal close-up helps to observe the mouth area. The three simple eyes and the tiny pair of antennae can be seen clearly. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.
