Unusual butterfly?
Posted: Sun Jul 10, 2011 2:55 pm
Hi there.
I should say first of all that I know nothing about butterflies however I have just been for a walk along some clifftops in the North East of Scotland and saw a butterfly which I have never seen before. Unfortunatley I did not have my camera.
It had a red body, creamish white wings with a black speckled pattern on them. Does anyone have any ideas what this may be. I suppose it could be a moth?
I've checked out various photos on moth and butterfly websites and cant yet find anything like it
