Pulled all the big books out, Linda and I keep coming back to Riband Wave - I will say I'm not 100% on it because I cannot see enough detail and it is a bit worn - I know the feeling

Seen a clouded yellow this morning. Lovely looking butterfly, but kept closing its wings when it landed.

It's incredibly difficult to get them with wings open they don't bask. Photograph on burst and hope for the best

Nowadays there's "pre-capture" too, which records images before the button is fully pressed. I think most of the camera companies have it now, but not all cameras. I've never used it on mine, really ought to give it a go lol. Never seen a Clouded Yellow either, so good spot Will :)

Here is the clouded yellow I came across, is really stunning when flying, a lovely stand out yellow.
