I thought i would post this in case anybody is thinking of going to Madiera.
For various reasons i can not go on my usual Spain/Portugal Spring Butterfly hunt so i went to Madiera last week instead, There were very few Butterflies around but i did see around 10 Monarchs, lots of Speckled Wood, a couple of Red Admirals, a Clouded Yellow and a few unidentified Whites, Moths were better with around 25 species including a Bloxworth Snout.
