Insects & butterflies

 

Tiny bugs are easy to miss on these tiny wild strawberries.

Another strange bug that could be an ant or even a bee.

A ragged brimstone, battered no doubt by recent storms like many of the butterflies seen today. Below a meadow brown looking a little better.

There were more butterflies today but by midday an approaching storm soon had them taking cover.

So this is a ringlet butterfly, (above and below), it's a new name to me but I have seen them before.

A red admiral (below), I assume from the red marking, takes refuge in a tree.
