Hi all

new poster - great site.

Thought I would let you know I spotted a small tortoiseshell flying erratically in my garden (cottingham, east yorkshire) on saturday 2nd december. after a couple of minutes it vanished - hope it found somewhere nice and warm to survive the winter...

welcome jfish! Saw one Red Admiral today, which means they are hibernating here this year, very rare in N.I.
