We don't get beautiful butterflies like that anymore in England - you're hard pushed these days to even see Red Admirals. I think it's the colder Winters and the long wet summers that don't suit butterflies anymore and they just seem to have faded into obscurity. I remember when I was younger in the summer holidays that you would see countless butterflies of all varieties. Nowadays, it just seems to be Cabbage Whites that are prevalent - well where I live anyway. Other parts of the UK may differ to myself.

ReplyDeleteAh lovely. They'll soon be back. Cold frosty morning here, but definitely more warmth in the sun. Mia S

Oh, you really got me longing now! But at least I have shadows. The sun has showed it's face for some days now. :)
