    Nice couple of shots, strangely enough, I've seen quite a few butterflies over the past couple of days.

    I still haven't seen many. 2 hours in the park the other day and I saw just 2 Speckled Woods and 3 or 4 whites... and there were a lot of Butterfly bushes to attract them.

    Nice shots, Louise!

    We've seen very few butterflies this year - at ANY time.

    Last year was exactly the opposite.

    LOTS of Bumble Bees of different types though!

    It's weird how it goes, isn't it? Still - it makes life that much more interesting as you never know what you're going to find.
