Perhaps a little bit of flash would have helped on this one? I'm sure you've already thought that, but you did ask for c.c. so I'm trying hard. Nice to see it named, I always get mixed up between painted ladies, commas, red admirals... Isn't a comma the only British butterfly with "ragged" wings?

As far as I know Jacquie, one of the guys I was out birding with named it - I dont think I would have had a clue otherwise! Flash could have been useful, but my remote was attached to the hotshoe, and the little blighters were flitting around so much I felt very fortunate to catch this one at all!
Thanks for the input!

Hi Kaz
It is a comma, the "ragged" wings give that away. You have already commented on flash so no more to be said on that score. Knowing how fast they flit from flower to flower, just think they would take after their name and "pause" for a while.
