White admiral




This morning I saw a butterfly flying around, black wings, white dots.
I have never seen him before, as far as I can remember.
Yes on photos ...not in my garden.

So I tried to chase him quickly...only got a small glimpse...enough for determination.
His english name is White Admiral.
In dutch its named Kleine IJsvogelvlinder or in latin (Limenitis camilla)

The butterfly is on the red list because they are very rare here.
