Description

He is slightly bigger than an inch.
He sits on Tanacetum Vulgare.
English name: Common Tansy.
Dutch name: Boerenwormkruid.
This is also a photo I took last Sunday.
It really took a while before I succeeded ;D
This butterfly was very restless.
He flew from here to there, and again.
That is sometimes my behavior too, just that I can't fly, huh?
Back to my upload yesterday (those rotten teeth).
Later on my husband found a link where you could read what it was. Karel was so kind to put the link under my photo.
It was not garlic.
They were grains of corn with a disease.
A kind of mushroom, which in Mexico are eaten as a delicacy.
Cheryl, (clbsmiley) was the only one who knew exactly what it was. And she had even eaten it once. Cheers, Cheryl :D
Thank you very much for your contribution to this yesterday puzzle!
Thank you for your time, I appreciate all your kindness very much.
Wishing you a lovely day!
Mies.

We call it Small Copper. SO difficult to get a shot, you did really well! They are quite aggressive toward other butterflies!
