Late summer butterflies...........................................................................................

A few butterfly images from the weekend... the weather was bright and sunny.

Red Admiral

Speckled Wood

 Speckled Woods were in good numbers... the males vigorously defending their territory's.

Large White

     I was in the prone position capturing the last two images... it took me a while to get back up again.

A wonderful selection of images Andrew! Butterflies are difficult to photograph. I find they just don't sit for long enough.

These butterflies are all beautiful, but the white/blue-ish takes the cake for me.
