    Thank you Rolf.
    I climbed up a steep bank and got my feet all tangled in brambles and the nettles were up to waist and I was thinking got to get nearer and I thought I'll worry about how I'm going to climb down when I get the perfect shot.
    I got down in one piece ( luckily no one about). What a carry on

    Well worth the effort Beryl, in particular showing the fine pattern of the under-wing which I've never witnessed in real life......nice one!

    Pete.

    Here's one I captured this morning, unfortunately he stayed with wings open pretty much all of the time.

    That is a beauty. Nice back ground too

    People say I am lucky too get a shot with the wings open so you have done well there Rolf. They do usually close them.
