Butterflies

I meant to share this, a couple of days ago.
The warmth of the sun brought 4 peacock butterflies out, while I savoured the moment in my garden.

Well I have now, beautiful thanks Emmie

[emmie]

indeed very beautiful, i remember going to a special hothouse years ago to see exotic species of moths, butterflies from across the world.

they were humongous creatures, much bigger than anything we have here.

Several Brimstone butterflies spotted in the garden in the last 3 days.
They seem to be collecting nectar mostly from lungwort flowers lately.
