Comma Butterfly (+PiP)

Comma Butterfly (+PiP)
Taken in my garden. The PiP shows the underwings and the distinctive white "comma" marking which gives it it's name.

This is the first time I've seen a Comma in my garden, so I was very pleased to get this shot.

Best viewed large, if you have time!

They're fairly common in England................but this was the first one I've seen this year! I'll keep my eyes open for one with a question mark on it.

Thanks Tanja!

Great shot - I had yesterday also the luck to watch one. In german it's not just a question mark butterfly :-) , but called C-Butterfly.

Glad you like it Christian. Thanks very much.

Yes. In the UK the 'C" stands for comma. (Even though it doesn't always look like a comma}!
