Weather forecast not looking too good for butterflies in the UK next week...
Just a few red admirals cruising around rather hopelessly up here in my mountain - hopelessly, because the altitude ones never survive the winter.
This is what October looked like on my dog walk this evening. That isn't water - it's cloud. Sometimes it splashes around the mountains looking just like the sea and everyone above it has a glorious day while those below are shrouded in gloom. I move on Tuesday, 250m further down the mountain.
