    Apparently it get its name from its habit of settling on gate posts. I have seen lots but never on a gate post.

    Many of these were flying around in the afternoon sun. Finally this one rested for a minute or two.

    These colourful little butterflies seem to be everywhere recently. I can't remember seeing quite so many in recent years. This is one of many at Strumpshaw Fen on Saturday. Ron

    This butterfly was very co-operative, letting me take quite a few shots of it. I haven't really got a clue what sort it is (gatekeeper maybe?) So, if someone can tell me, I'll update the description. Thought it was a nice picture to share anyway. Only just realised, a day after I posted it...

    This is a neat little butterfly, that never settled down long in one place.
