Small Tortoiseshell 02
Taken at Catherington Down, Hampshire on Friday. Another warm sunny afternoon, I spotted a patch of flowers in the corner of the field and when I strolled over to it I could see it was full of butterflies , I saw at least 6-7 different ones.. This little gem was the only small tortoiseshell there.
