Fantastic! The colours of the bluebells really compliment the Orange Tip butterfly

Well done on getting these shots but I would think/hope you are happy to have a bit of criticism as well. Neither seem as sharp as they could be, try changing your camera AF to spot and I see you used 5.6 on the lower shot, increase the DOF a bit try 8 or even 10 and take the focus on the butterfly or moth in the centre of the shot and hold the button down whilst you recompose the shot.
Sorry if you already know all that but I feel you could get excellent shots instead of good ones.
