Moth or butterfly?

Spotted this flying about in the sunshine and it's very pretty.  It's under wings are bright red.  I'm wondering whether it's a moth or a small butterfly.  Does anyone know?

    I don't know, but it's beautiful 😍 
  • Bisognerebbe guardarla da vicino per vedere le differenze, ma sembra comunque una falena dal tipo di ali
  • I love finding moths and butterflies to photograph! I think it's a moth because they tend to hold their wings horizontally...either way it has gorgeous coloring! 
  • I think it's a moth. Beautiful one
  • What is this is a fly
