A male orange-tip butterfly warming up his wings at Coombe Hill Canal & Meadows nature reserve in Gloucestershire.
As I was driving back to Anchroage from Seward I saw this mountain top. What grabbed my attention were the crisp sharp lines and angles of the snow on the mountain top.

Sorry, can't show the purple tip, its on the inside, although with butterflies its called the upper side.

Eastern-tailed Blue butterfly taking nectar from a White Clover floret in deep grass.
As I understand things, the eye-spots and tail-like appendages are designed to mimic the insect's head. All in the hope that a predator attack there and saving the life of the butterfly. Seems to work. I've encountered specimens with that part of their wing clipped by what appears to be a bird's beak.
Common though not abundant, this year.
On an errand today I had the feeling it might be worth taking the camera. Just as I was about to head back I saw this little beauty resting up on some brambles.
Despite the blown out areas I do like taking shots of these backlit as the orange just glows.

La Torre del Molino, también llamada Torre de Aníbal es una torre defensiva de época medieval que se sitúa en las afueras de la localidad de Caudiel (provincia de Castellón, España).
Tiene forma cilíndrica, construida con material de conglomerado de piedra y cal, que une los bloques de piedra regulares. Está cubierta con una cúpula revestida de tejas.
Hay quienes la atribuyen a Aníbal y otros a la época medieval. En opinión de Plinio el Viejo, Hircio y Tito Livio, denominan a este tipo de torres “Turris Hannibalis”, construidas en los altozanos como atalayas de vigilancia contra los ladrones o contra las incursiones de los ejércitos enemigos, las cuales se comunicaban con otras semejantes de la comarca.
Gorgeous display of Burnt-tip Orchids this year. Science name: Neotinea ustulata. Martin Down National Nature Reserve. Hampshire, England
Thank you to everybody that views, comments and for favouring my images. Always greatly appreciated.
Image taken at the Stonebow Washlands in Charnwood. Orange - tips in our area have been plentiful so far this year and it was a bonus to catch the Male and Female together.
This male Orange Tip was busy flying around when he decided to settle, this was my chance to grab a few shots before he took to the wing again.
A contribution to the Paris climate agreement.
I think, if nothing changes or things get worse, many will pay a high price.

I don't often get the chance to photograph these butterflies. They are constantly on the move and hardly ever land.
I was very lucky with this one.....except I didn't have my macro lens with me !
After years of trying and being frustrated that they were always to fast, I finally managed to get a decent shot of an Orange tip. Stoked! Arnhem, Netherlands
