Purple-shot Copper (L. a. gordius) |
This Purple.shot Copper butterfly is so bright and pretty that I just couldn't stop taking photos of it! This beautiful little butterfly is seldom seen below 1,000m. It can be found in the Alps, Pyrenees, and other neighbouring ranges.

Yes, you're right, it is pretty amazing. When I first saw it I could'nt believe my eyes.There are plenty orange butterflies but not with a blue body, which makes it a bit special.

Thank you! I really don't think I could have taken a bad photo of this pretty butterfly. It stayed perfectly still, and came day after day to the same spot.If only they were all as obliging!!

Stunning colour contrasts. No butterflies in my garden this year and very few elsewhere. A sign of climate change? As predicted it's Wimbledon so it's raining!
Len
Thank you Len! It was a bright sunny day when I took these photos
so the colour contrasts show very well. Butterflies started to appear in my garden as far back as March! Haven't seen any for three days though due to rain.
Que beleza
Breathtaking they are wonderful. Butterflies are beautiful and these pictures are full of detail, until you see the hair. Kisses
Lovely photos !

It's always a pleasure when you visit!Thank you for your humourous comment Gaspar,you made me smile.:)
These butterflies are pretty wonderful.They are mountaineers because they are seldom seen below 1,000m.They can be found in the Pyrenees, and in the mountain meadows of the Alps.I'm so pleased they found the mountain side where I live!!
Edu. Matos
That is precisely what I thought when I saw them.Que beleza!! Thank you for passing by.

Grin! I know what you mean about the hairs. At one time I thought it was only moths which have hairs,but the camera does'nt lie.
Thank you for your visit.I will visit you soon, and then take a short break from blogging for a while.
