Another tiny butterfly

Same guy on all three pics but different grass.

Seems it has one broken antenna.
Handheld and full frame (#1 & #2, #3 is a crop of #2).
Looks like it has some sort of eyelid. (see #3)

Crisp! One of the ringlets, like our Coenonympha tullia -- sorry, I don't know the European species.

But I am puzzled -- what is this "eyelid" you speak of?

Yes, I agree on the focus...very sharp. And a beautiful little BF. I see what you mean by an eyelid

Makes the eye look like a spotlight

Beautiful images. The BF are starting to come around my garden, so hopefully I will have a few images to post soon.

I see the "lid" in the third image, or at least what appears to be an eyelid.

Yup Sue, show them to us.

You know Rik... part of the skin covering an eye... well i didn't see it blinking if you meant it.
