Small Tortoiseshell Butterfly

Aglais urticae, or in Swedish, Nässelfjäril (directly translated, nettle butterfly)
One of many small tortoiseshells feeding on our oregano. Naturally there were bees too but they seemed a little camera shy. There is one on the flower to the right of the butterfly.

Unlike the butterflies we spent most of today being fairly idle. Neither of us felt completely well and there was a definite lack of energy. But we did manage to fetch out the hammocks and spent a few hours reading and even snoozing a little.
