I caught several flutterbys in New England, but this is the only Irish one. It's fluttering between dandelions in the grass around Newgrange:

"Newgrange is a Stone Age (Neolithic) monument in the Boyne Valley, County Meath, it is the jewel in the crown of Ireland's Ancient East. Newgrange was constructed about 5,200 years ago (3,200 B.C.) which makes it older than Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids of Giza."

I wonder if the ancient ancestors of this flutterby were fluttering about while Newgrange was built, no more impressed by our efforts then than now. I like to think so.

Now, notice the EXIF. Taken with a Panny ZS80 compact travel zoom camera @ 720 mm eq on a 1/2.3" (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor - cropped. Did I process the bejezus out of it; well, Duh.

Still, came out pretty well, no?
