Very nice colors and good shot for a very restless butterfly.
Servus!
Please, join the new mission of European butterflies and moths and post all your corresponding spottings. We need a lot of people which would join the group to make it global! Thanks and best regards from Switzerland!

Monkey and nana, to see other new local missions which are not in your area, go to missions, select local, and clear your location from the search field. You'll get to see all the local missions worldwide.
I did, but there was only flowers of europe & alpine flowers... are there new ones?
Also verify about new missions... Local...
you were right :D
Now its like German... I copy it from German edition of Red Admiral wiki page...
;) there you go! I usually write both names into the name field
Der Admiral right...?
You must write it then in German both IDs look to be English. So confusing.
Ashish congrats you are a ranger! that´s cool - I noticed just now...
I also added after the comma the german name, that´s why there is a second Admiral too
ID must be just Red Admiral
Simply stunning.
Thank you Marta and Susan! ;)
great shot esp the first one
Is such a nice contrast with the flowers :-)
that was several days ago - I´ll ask nana
What a beauty! Are these still flying aroung monkey&nana, or do you need to change the date?
