Butterfly

Not sure which butterfly this is - my ID skills have deserted me. The nearest I can see in my book is a Wall Brown but this is brown and that looks orange in my book. Any ideas?

The Google Lens app on my phone just identified it as a Speckled Wood butterfly. Love Google Lens! Great shot, love the colours and DoF.

@shepherdman thanks for that! I will check out a Google Lens - not heard of it - sounds very useful!

[Lesley]

Lovely. You can almost feel the wings. I think it's either a Common Wood or a Gatekeeper.

I´m with @shepherdman it's probably a speckled wood butterfly, quite common here in The Netherlands. Lovely capture

I think this is a Speckled Wood. Great capture, they don't seem to sit still for long.
