Camberwell Beauty (Nymphalis antiopa) on a leaf

The photo was taken directly at beehives in Hirschegg near the Kanzelwandbahn valley station just behind the border to Austria. There were two Camberwell Beauties (Nymphalis antiopa), one in good condition and one in less good condition. They were always flying back and forth between the edge of the forest on the Breitach and the sunny beehives.
