Butterflies, Moths and Assorted Insects...

Pyrausta purpuralis is really tiny, less than 2 cm. Just compare it to the bloom (which I suppose is a camomile).
I found two common names: "common purple and gold." and "common crimson and gold moth".
German common name is "Purpurroter Zünsler"

And you really can be!
And the "useless" shots are what they are... steps towards the keepers. Only annoying thing ist the time you need to sort them out

First, congrats on sneaking in a 'beeing' punIt is no problem to delete the unfocussed but what about 20 or 40 pictures with perfect focus beeing similar?
As for having a lot of similar pictures to sort through, I tend to select them as a group in Lightroom, edit one to my liking, then sync that to the whole selection. The next step is stepping through them and deleting either the current picture or the previous one, depending on which you like best.
It's still tedious, but doing it in groups helps me a lot with staying motivated. Culling a 40 shot burst to 1 or 2 pictures feels just as good as culling a whole morning of shooting
I hear photographers working for an agency use Photomechanic to quickly sort through images and send the best ones to the mothership. I haven't tried that myself since a lot of great shots needed +100 shadows, Canon automatic metering doesn't handle bumblebees well.

I tend to keep only the best of a series of images and am ruthless at deleting. I've spent months of my life agonising over which of virtually identical images to delete. But, did it make any real difference in the end which one was chosen? In most cases no. For dragonflies in flight and 20-30 fps, there is always an animated gif waiting to get out.First, congrats on sneaking in a 'beeing' pun

Isn't most of the whole CR forum dealing with luxury problems aka first world problems?
...and I am just in my 6th year of photography. When starting I wanted to keep every stupid shot.
Yes, indeed. But it took some time to learn...

An atlas
Better said, a series of a map (asraschnia levana) in its summer dress, sitting on a great burnet (sanguisorba officinalis).
Note that this butterfly has a spring and a summer generation that look different.

I am still fascinated by their life cycle:
