    Had to get Glen to take the pics for me as I was working in the garden - and his camera takes these ones better anyway! Thought you'd like to see them all the same...

    Nice ones Catherine, they do have amazing camouflage when they're not moving.

    This isn't my photo* - It's my son's. He was all ready to take a pic of the Narcissus - when a Comma Butterfly flew on to it and 'posed for a photo!

    Why am I never so lucky?

    *But it's MY garden and MY Narcissus, so I hoped it would be OK posting it!

    That is a real bit of luck - it's normally 'spot from a distance, all hands on deck... then completely miss it'
