Three Fritillaries

[Alastair Rae]

Having read Patrick Barkham's The Butterfly Isles I had a new year's resolution to do more butterfly hunting. Of course the weather has been unhelpful but I have managed to get some new fritillaries on my list. (Ok, I know the Duke is no longer considered a Fritillary but allow me some poetic licence.)
