Grantown on Spey and Lochindorb
Dark Green Fritillary (Argynnis aglaja) butterfly, Grantown East, Speyside, taken by David Palmar. From the top, the butterfly is orange with black markings, and doesn't look green. The "dark green" refers to the underwing, which has white patches and in many cases the green isn't actually very dark!
