Seen my first butterfly of the year while walking the lanes this morning. A peacock.
Well spotted Willpar. I had another Brimstone today.

A good one to have JS. Don't see them here very often. The peacock was a bit on the tatty side though.

Seen a Red Admiral down the woods of all places this morning. Did not settle long enough to get a shot of it.

It is surprising what difference a few fine days make.

Seen several white butterflies this morning, did make out that one was a small white. Also a speckled wood, a red admiral and a peacock. Was nice and sunny.
