Nice catch!

You are fortunate to have so many different butterflies close by.

+1.  Since I was also going to ask about whether it is a male and female I'll echo David's other thoughts as well.

Thanks for the comments, these butterflies are not easy to find. It is a very localized species and is at risk of extinction, in fact it is protected by the European Habitat Directive (92/42 EEC). In this image it should probably be a male and a female, if I'm not mistaken, the male should be the one on the right. Thanks again for your comments ... :wink:
