They've been very numerous this year, which many attribute to climate change. Taken not with a macro lens but the 100-400mm. TTTW. Thank you for your comments, and good birding!- Jonno52

Red Admiral
Red Admiral (Vanessa atalanta: Nymphalidae) Wingspan 4.4-6.4 cm (1.75 -2.50 in). It is always amazing at how conspicuous these butterflies are when their wings are open and yet even being a few feet away when they close their wings they just disappear.

Camouflage
Due to the unusually warm autumn, there are still active butterflies - like this Vanessa atalanta, showing its excellent camouflage on an Elm-tree bark. Comparing its underwing coloring with summer "edition" one can notice absence of blue and presence of new (lichen-like) green as well...- Vesna Zadravec

A late Red Admiral
After five or six days with a miserable weather, we had three relative nice days (starting with Friday 6th). During this three days I saw a relative big number of insect species (more than ten), but only one butterfly species.- Cristian Mihai
