Mourning cloak butterfly (Nymphalis antiopa)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

A beautiful shot by Barry of this gorgeous butterfly. This is one of the species that overwinters as an adult and yet despite spending months hunkered in a tiny shelter, this particular butterfly looks quite fresh and the blue spots on the wing glisten. In Britain these are known as the Camberwell Beauty.
