Yep, that's a typical egg-laying posture.

Of course there's an easy way to tell for sure -- wait until the butterfly leaves and see if there's an egg or two left behind!

Great photo Nikola. Lots of DOF in this one

Beautiful shot there Nikola.

I have not seen many butterflies this year as compared to last.

Unfortunately I didn't figure out what's going on.
