Mike,
I love the lighting of this butterfly! Since I am living in Oklahoma, when I saw the title my mind automatically read it as, “Small Copperhead.” I thought, “Wait, they don’t have copperheads in England!” Glad to see a much less threatening photo of a butterfly. The color family is similar, though. I have a photo of a copperhead on my site if you wanted to compare their colors :o)

Thanks, Kyle. Is a copperhead a butterfly or a snake?

We have an American copper here. It looks the same, and is small.
