Common Wood-nymph

Common Wood-nymph

This Common Wood-nymph was resting on my garden bench one warm mid-August day. They use many different types of grasses for their host plant. This species of satyr is often found nectaring on flowers, unlike most satyrs.

Great close-up ! This is one I don't think I've seen here where I live.
