UK, three butterflies: comma, holly blue, small tortoiseshell
I've seen all of these butterflies in the last couple of weeks but some of the photos are from last year. The ones that got away were several speckled wood butterflies, which are brown with yellow spot markings (link to google image search results).
A comma butterfly, Polygonia c- album.

Comma and bumblebee.

The reason this butterfly is called a comma (image also with tongue visible).

Holly blue butterfly, Celastrina argiolus, male.


Small tortoiseshell butterfly, Aglais urticae.
