The most annoying loss of butterfly photos is of those from the last few weeks which I hadn't got round to posting here yet. Also annoying is that the spreadsheet data for 2023 and 2024 that I keep of local sightings is lost too (though some of the info is in my PD on here). Everything up to December 2022 was backed up, I'm pleased to say.
Luckily, my youngest offspring produced a spare laptop from somewhere, reset it to its original state, and handed it over - once logged into my various accounts, magically all sorts of saved settings reappeared. However, the moral of the story is - back everything up all the time, and don't leave things on trains!
I went out locally this morning, found around 80 butterflies of 10 species, took a fair few photos and felt a bit less annoyed with myself...
