My first butterfly of the year - I've seen more, but this was the first one that sat still long enough to have it's photo taken ;-))

I don't know what leaf it's on Tanja.........but I didn't see or smell any mint around. There were a lot of nettles though.

Glad you like the shot. Thank you.

Funny you should say that, as I have seen many on my walks, but they flit about so quickly! The bees are being very temperamental too. Every time I get anywhere near...off they go!!
Well done capturing this beautiful shot!

Thanks Rosa. I think the trick is to research where they lay up at night and catch them early in the morning before they warm up!

Glad you like this one though.
