BUTTERFLIES
Re: BUTTERFLIES
Seem to be an abnormal amount of quite small brown butterflies around for these past 2 days. Think it may be linked to the fact that the buddleia is in flower . Absolute magnet !!

Re: BUTTERFLIES
My buddleia is in full flower at present with a very strong perfume(even I can smell it). Butterfly visits, thus far, have been disappointing
Re: BUTTERFLIES
Same here jacksparrow. Lots of buddleia on my walks but hardly a butterfly. See more of the in the hedges.

My Papillon du jour was the Peacock. There were several flitting around most of the day plus the usual selection of whites
Re: BUTTERFLIES
Lots and lots today (because the sun was out ) - mainly seem to be peacocks and large whites.

Re: BUTTERFLIES
Painted Ladies were the butterflies of the day. The most I counted at one time was only four but each time I walked past the buddleia through the day there were always a couple in evidence.
