CLOUDED YELLOW

This butterfly is a summer migrant and its the second i have seen this year. I have read that its hard to get a photo of it with its wings open. Maybe next time. Note the green eyes,

  3. I've seen him too, Peter. Such a beautiful butterfly. Fantastic shot. You have to be quick when you see one. They disappear in a jiffy. I also don't have a pic with open wings Greetings, Joke
