This is a particularly nice shot of this species with its wings open. It seems unreal that all these butterflies are now starting to appear! Winter is still a recent memory and last fall when we found these at the Bruce Pit isn't a distant memory either.

Coppers are amongst my favourite butterflies. This is a lovely shot. V
