Default [OT] Early butterfly

I saw a butterfly in the garden this afternoon. It had a brown hairy
body, orangish wings with dark brown spots. It's not a subject I know
anything about but this does seem fairly early. Any expert knowledge out
there?

Max temp 20.3 today.

No. It wasn't that. A red admiral is one of the few butterflies I can
recognise :-)
