Spotted this red admiral butterfly in the garden the other day. Did my normal careful approach getting closer each time and it didn't seem to bother it too much - did spook it once but it settled down again . All strong natural light shots.

    It looks in excellent condition.

    Nice stereo.

    It didn't do the sitting on your head/shoulder/lens trick? :D
