Wall Brown Butterfly

Went for a great walk today over a place call Chest Wood, which is a village called Layer de la Haye in Essex.  There was hardly anyone around, and there was plenty of wildlife around.  

This shot is of a butterfly called a Wall Brown, it is a Satyr, and can often be observed sunbathing with its wings spread open.  It took only a little while for it to settle so I could get a good shot of it.

Also, over in the woods, we saw plenty of birds flying around and even a woodpecker.

Hope you like the shot.
