Thanks for viewing !! :o)
Im deeply ashamed for providing you all of you with the wrong
information earlier... i wasnt quite awake this morning, dunno
what happened... *sigh* I just got home after being away all day
and read Rics (PapaGuru) IM... he notified me of my error... a
HUGE one i might add :o(( Thanks Ric !!
Its actually a Small Heath, Coenonnympha pamphilus
Wingspan: 24 - 30 mm
The Small Heath is an inconspicuous butterfly that flies only in
sunshine and rarely settles more than a metre above the ground.
Its wings are always kept closed when at rest. The number of broods
and the flight periods are variable and adults may be seen
continuously from late April to September. This relatively widespread
butterfly can occupy a range of habitat types and, although its range
has changed little, many colonies have disappeared in recent decades.
It appears throughout Europe to 69

First of all I want to congratulate you with another fantastic macro. I know this species.. took pictures of this butterfly many times but seldom succeeded which is of course not so strange. Butterflies are always difficult to take pictures of.. this photo underlines your mastership in this course

Funny, this one is attached to a Plantago but perhaps this outpost is just a place for defense! Excellent work, Jeroen, have a great SUNday!
