Perfect small copper seen today
Another small copper that seemed exceptionally pale
It's a #butterfly day! ๐๐คฉ๐๐ฆ And a cultured one at that with 7+ small coppers out at #WroxeterRomanCity today, looking very fresh, there was also a very pale one, I thought maybe faded but it's wing fringe was intact. #EnglishHeritage @savebutterflies.bsky.social #Shropshire #butterflies
