Sicily in April

Dear,

I'm currently planning on holiday in Sicily during the 2nd week of April and I'm wondering if anyone has any notable butterfly sites they would recommend. I've been looking around on the internet, but couldn't find some guidance here.

Thanks for any advice.

All,

Back from my trip to Sicily, cloudy weather and rain though and less butterfly activity as expected.

Swallowtails, souther festoon http://www.maanvlek.be/Level3species.php?sequence=7, orange tips & eastern orange tips and some blues which I think are green-underside blue http://www.maanvlek.be/Level3species.php?sequence=221 were the most active. Let me know if the blue is not correct, since I counted only 4 dots on the hind-wing underside.

Thanks

Willem
