thanks jgorneau for the ID. Can't seem to access ProjectNoah at the moment, all the photo links come up broken. I'll have to upload the ID tomorrow...

I believe this is the European Subspecies, Lycaena phlaeas phlaeas. Strangely enough, one of its common names is American Copper, though it is distributed almost worldwide!
