Small copper butterfly on brambles at Lough Gur
This twig of the blackberry bush had flowers and green fruit, nearby there were some ripe fruit - it is a good year for blackberries. There were various butterflies and damselflies around this wet area near the lough. This is a small copper, Lycaena phleas. See ST3425 : Insects on bramble, East Deane Way for a small copper on brambles in England.
