Just in: Little orange ones, also cute
It seems the season for the small copper (Lycaena phlaeas), kleine vuurvlinder in Dutch, has started in earnest. I saw these two days ago in the Aamsveen, a peat bog in The Netherlands near the German border (all is quiet at the border, btw, no worries):
This is the first one I spotted, looking around for food, I think:

About to take flight:
Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO160, f5.6, 1/500s
Food!
Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO160, f5.6, 1/500s
Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO200, f8, 1/400s
Here's one with its wings fully open, they don't sit like that often:
