Orange tip butterfly

Perfect Spritz,lucky you :))

Wow thats beautiful:))

Sbg said that the male ones have an orange tip on the reverse of their wings - and this one did! I 'was' lucky - they've been fluttering around for several weeks now, and I've only seen two land on a flower or plant. :-)))

oh wow beautiful

He is, isn't he! He liked my aubrieta....:-))

Absolutely beautiful. Don't believe I've seen one of these since I left old englandshire! Well snapped! ;)

Thank you....I was amazed that he stayed still!

wow he is lovely barbara ;o) great shot

Good shot Barbara....

Lovely, so you've now seen the other side.

Yes, except that I peeked at the back of his wings, and saw the orange tips, as Sbg said. I'd have known what the other one was if 'she' had been 'he'...lol.

Well caught!

Spritz~this is an incredible close up~it's amazing~well captured my friend!! :~))

Thanks - and thank Mr Orange Tip, too! :-)))

Very sexist Spritz.

So symetrical !

Perfect with the aubretia !

NO, it's not, Toto - Sbg told me how to find out if they're make or female - and this was a 'he'!!!

Thanks, Ray/Jane.

Yes, Gardengirl - I suppose they are! :-)))

He's lovely, i don't think i've seen one here, lucky you :-))

That makes a change, Louise!!!! :-)))

Tsk !

Well - all the different birds you get that I've 'never' seen, even!

Well, what can i say ;-))

Not a lot - but I have seen the lesser spotted woodpecker again! He's beautiful. :-)))))

Stunning butterfly Spritz and they're quick to be off these, so well done you!

Hello Spritz ... that is a perfect shot. Lovely colours.

Hiya Fluff! Thank you. :-))

Janey - they are indeed - I was lucky he decided to stay still for me. :-O)
