By change spotted this Cupido minimus (I think) aka. “Small Blue” outside the front door on the hedge. The smallest Irish butterfly if I am not mistaken.
Great to see Spring getting into full swing/

A great snap @Jim_Allen . I’ve never seen a butterfly like this.
Thanks . I do come across this butterfly more often in Ireland, however, a first so close to home within a bulit up area
@Jim_Allen are good images of a species that I did not know, there is a lot of variety in them … thanks for this contribution!
Thanks
@Jim_Allen what a beautiful picture! the butterfly appears to have a lovely blue colour on the inside of the wings.
