Description


Latin name: Lycaena Phalaeas. Dutch name: Vuurvlindertje. He is slightly bigger than an inch. He sits on Tanacetum Vulgare. English name: Common Tansy. Dutch name: Boerenwormkruid. This is also a photo I took last Sunday. It really took a while before I succeeded ;D This butterfly was very restless. He flew from here to there, and again. That is sometimes my behavior too, just that I can't fly, huh? Back to my upload yesterday (those rotten teeth). Later on my husband found a link where you could read what it was. Karel was so kind to put the link under my photo. It was not garlic. They were grains of corn with a disease. A kind of mushroom, which in Mexico are eaten as a delicacy. Cheryl, (clbsmiley) was the only one who knew exactly what it was. And she had even eaten it once. Cheers, Cheryl :D Thank you very much for your contribution to this yesterday puzzle! Thank you for your time, I appreciate all your kindness very much. Wishing you a lovely day! Mies.

We call it Small Copper. SO difficult to get a shot, you did really well! They are quite aggressive toward other butterflies!

Oh stupid me, I wrote the wrong name as title! Of course you are right, Andrea ♥ And, indeed I was on safari for at least half an hour to shoot him.
