Blackberry bushes with visitors part 1: butterflies

As I said in this post, there aren't all that many flowers in the peat bog, so when the blackberry bushes start opening their flowers, many insects go there for food, like these two:

A brimstone (Gonepteryx rhamni), citroenvlinder in Dutch:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/800s

A small tortoiseshell (Aglais urticae), kleine vos in Dutch:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/320s

I'll show the bees I saw in the next post.
