Gatekeeper Butterfly by marshwader

Gatekeeper Butterfly

Saw this little butterfly this morning and captured it on my iPhone. Not the greatest of quality, but not able to use my main cameras and download to Lightroom at the moment! But hey, it is a photograph!
I think all the ones I see like this are meadow browns. Perhaps I need to be more careful with my observations. iphone worked well enough ... the important thing is to keep taking photos (I'm telling that to myself)

@helenhall Thanks. I looked up the butterfly in my little book, and the underneath of the wing looks like a Large Wall Brown, but I am open to be corrected!!

@colinwalls I stand corrected, especially as it was a bit diddly!
