Flutter by butterfly - a photo on Flickriver

            Or is it a moth? Nope, it is a Small Copper. Thanks for the identification Jai :-)

So, I am supposed to be digging a new trench at my allotment when this little beauty fluttered past. I dashed off to grab my camera and followed it around three other plots before it decided to land for long enough for me to get a picture.

All this to cries from my wife of 'where are you going?'

:-)

It is a type of butterfly I have never seen before, any ideas as to what it is called?
