Sorry about that David, :oops: I don't know how I got that wrong, needless to say when I lived abroad I wasn't interested in Butterflies ,I could kick myself now because of that, the only ones I've shots of up to now are all British. :D May be I'll get a long tailed Blue this year :lol: I can call i...

Lovely shots Bugboy, I've yet to see a Small Tort Goldie

Your doing great with the OT's Trevor I saw two today but they weren't for settling down, at least I saw them, Goldie

Hi! Wurzel, I'm still on the look out for a Brimstone ,Comma, Red Admiral etc ,etc, and OT"s hope fully tomorrow ,I'm stuck in today waiting for the Gas Man ( yearly check ) I wish he'd hurry up Goldie

I love your shots Trevor, Especially the Green Veined Whites I think the veins stand out well in your shots Goldie

WoW! Dave, your certainly finding the Butterflies lovely shots of the OT's Goldie

You've had some great shots whilst on holiday David, love the Festoon shots Goldie

Lovely shots of the Orange Tip Neil, I've yet to see them, hope fully they'll arrive here before long

I use to see the Small Tortoiseshell in my Garden in the North before any other Butterfly great shots of them Goldie :

Cheers Dave, Last year they were in the Garden every day it seemed In the end I just sat there and watched them I'm hoping this year will have the same out look Goldie

Just got back from shopping today and found this Holly Blue in my Garden, the Sun was out and then it disappeared into cloudy skies again lucky for me the Butterfly didn't move, it's the first in the Garden this year, if, all goes well it won't be the last Goldie

Hi! Wurzel and David, I've only seen a few Whites Wurzel and they were all in a hurry :D Luckily this one stopped, I've been to Monkton NR and plan to go there again with it being sheltered and in a quarry it could be okay for Green Hair Streak, fingers crossed, I've missed them for a couple of year...

Today I went to Castle Park in Tankerton , the Sun was shinning and for once the wind wasn't too bad ,although it still felt chilly, I'm glad I went early because by lunch time the Sun had disappeared again :roll: My Granddaughter's wedding is in four weeks and I've missed a few days when I could ha...

Thanks everybody, :D I couldn't believe it when I first saw it, I'm tempted to go back there today ,the gardens are well sheltered from the wind off the sea and when the Sun is out quite hot, I thought I saw more than one but it could have been the same one :lol: I'm out with my Daughter today so it...

Thats fantastic Allan Goldie

At Last!!! I've seen some Butterflies :D I've been doing lots in the Garden hoping I'd see something ,I did, a Brimstone flew past me also a Peacock :roll: I made up for it today I actually got some shots of a Peacock in Tankerton Park and to my surprise a Holly Blue appeared, it gave a stop, start,...

When it comes to picking favourites I'm always stuck I didn't get too many shots of different species last year but I quite like the one of a Gate Keeper in my Garden and the fact the yellow of the bloom looks nice and colour full and looks good with the Butterfly Goldie

It was the 10th and 16th of May last year when I decided to go to Reculver, I'd gone sooner in the year but found nothing ,besides which, the weather had been awful so I was pleased when I saw them flying Goldie

It was the 29th of July last year that I finally found a White Admiral, I'd been to East Blean Woods loads of times looking for them only to find where they usually are had been felled, the road into the car park there was half closed with broken tree's every where, needless to say I missed out on a...

The Small White were very plentiful in my Garden last year , it was definitely a good year for them, my photo was taken on the 15th of July in my Back Garden Goldie

I found the Speckled Wood in Castle Gardens Tankerton on the 2nd of June last year, compared to the year before very few were to be found there Goldie
