Pretty Fritillary, Pt. 3 - _TNY_4371
When climbing up the river bank in the Mjällådalen nature reserve near Härnösand, Sweden, my son and I almost stepped on this small pearl-bordered fritillary (Boloria selene), known as the silver-bordered fritillary in North America.
It was cool with us though and stayed on top of its flower and allowed me to photograph it both with the wings up and down and we left it still sitting on the flower when we were done.
