This male Marbled White Melanargia galathea, perched up well for me.
Taken early Sunday evening.
Quite like the different background tones, caused by the fading light/low cloud

Off shortly, to see if the Purple Emperors are playing ballSmile

Have a good turnout mate, they'll come down......Don't forget the loo paper though, short of this you could try any of the "Shiphams" fish pastes, which work quite well......Sardine & Tomato, also Shrimp work well, but I never told you this......

Cracking image BTW with this Marbled......

Another fine addition to the Twywell series Adie, the marbled whites have certainly played ball for you this year. If your missus notices all these items Ade has mentioned missing from her food cupboards she'll think you are either planning on doing some Al Fresco cooking in the woods or are planning on camping out and doing an overnighter like the afforementioned Bristolian did last week!WinkGrin

Congrats on a well deserved GEA!

Good looking image, did you place the butterfly or did it land their? I ask as butterflies rarely land on non-flowering wildflowers.
