Wondering if it was the female of one of the species of butterflies I saw in the area and reported this morning.

Hi Judith. Black Mountain is a great location for seeing this species and I agree with Ian, you've taken a lovely set of images.

Thanks Suzi, I'll have to start putting a macro lens on board so I can get higher resolution ones if they will let me.
