They are not all of the same individual though. In shot one, on both wings, where the white spots meet the red banding, there are little white dots actually in the red itself. These dots are not present in shot two, therefore it is a different butterfly. There have been numerous comments about these white dots in the UK butterfly forums and the general opinion has been that they are aberrations, but pretty common ones.

I thought you might like to know that.  Thanks for your comments eccles. Never noticed the white spots. Brian
