What a beauty (and the apple Dick)
It is a Speckled Wood and as it's name suggests it is fond of partial shade and dappled woodland. Looks like a local bird has had a go at it but they are tough little thing. It prefers the honeydew of the leaves in the woods. We have a fair few of them at Railway Fields (here's one I photographed in July) and it has a growing population after some years of decline. It's a beautiful butterfly
I've had this one all week
That is a red admiral.
