Another warm day (approaching 17 degrees by late afternoon), but I was only able to get out and about at lunchtime, when the sun was rather hazy and it was rather windy.
I saw only two butterflies - a Small Tortoiseshell and a Comma - but I didn't cover much of the usual ground. The former individual was crawling restlessly over the sprouting nettle beds, which I imagine could indicate she was a mated female looking to lay. I will keep my eyes open for caterpillars in due course. The Comma I spotted in profile several feet up above me in a willow, choosing to bask up there rather than nearer ground level as most of the others I've seen have done.
