Small tortoiseshell

At least I think that's what it is but I'm happy to be corrected. I saw loads of butterflies today when I went for a walk along the cycle track. It was so hot so I walked through the wooded area where it was shady and very pleasant. This tortoiseshell was actually taken on the way back as it sat on someone's lavender bush. Thanks for all your wonderful comments and Favs and for getting yesterday's butterfly on PP
A lovely colourful capture.

Beautiful capture, Rosie, but what amazing detail on the antennae. I had no idea that's what they really look like.
