Dear Isaac,Thanks. The North East is such a magical place, I am sure I would have a butterfly list longer than the birds if I had a little more knowledge and paid more attention as we were basically looking for birds. I wish I had got the guy when I first saw him and the light was good. Anyway shooting butterflies with a long lens is quite awkward.
