I saw the Painted Lady on a Visit to Reculver on the 6th of July, I was surprised to see the Butterfly looking so fresh and I was lucky when it landed just in front of me. Goldie

I saw my Meadow Browns in East Blean Woods in June when I was looking for the Heath's, for once they not in long grass Goldie

Hi! Wurzel, I've got 50 species so far, still a few to go, but new ones keep cropping up :D I've decided to just enjoy the shots I've got and try to improve on the shots I've taken, I just hope next year is better weather wise, this year was a bit of a disaster ,I was out a lot but missed quite a fe...

Hi! Wurzel, if you ever get up to the Lake district ,go up the hill to Arnside Knott , people say the Scotch Argus is a rarity there but I found them every time I went, they don't seem to like the top of the knott, I always kept to the lower part, there's a path goes along through a gate in the park...

Some really lovely shots there Neill, I really like the ones of the Orange Tip and the Swallow Tail Goldie

It seems years ago now that I was in the Lake District taking shots of the Scotch Argus with my old camera :D, so I was surprised when my Granddaughter sent me a photo from the Highlands of Scotland of what I thought was a Scotch Argus, going through my old photos I could see the photo she sent was ...

I Took my shots of the Marbled White at Monkton Nature Reserve, it was my first visit there and I was surprised to see the Butterfly field there, I made myself a member right a way and hope fully in the New Year I'll be back :D I only found the NR in late June and feel I must have missed out not bei...

I saw loads of Holly Blues this year in my garden, I found it hard to pick out just one so, i've posted four all taken from April through May and June Goldie

I went to Monkton Nature reserve on the 27th of June and spotted this GVW on the blossom , my next GVW was in my own garden on the 26th of August,
I think they were few and far between this year, I saw more Small Whites this year and Red Admirals than the previous year,Goldie

I saw my first Heath Fritillary on the 9th of June , strange to say it was the only one a round at the time, at East Blean Woods. When I went back to EBW on the 6th of July there was a few more but not so many as in previous years, I did go back off and on in June but didn't see more than six or sev...

What a fantastic trip you had Wurzel and a great day to finish it off Goldie

Fantastic shot of the long tailed Blues Trevor The man did you a great favour in the long run Goldie

Great shots Bugboy, lucky you with the Long Tailed Blue I've yet to find even the the Brostreak, Goldie

Hi! Dave, I once got told by a man who knew his Butterflies quite well that if I stayed watching the spot where I'd seen a Comm, he was right

Lovely shots of them any way Goldie
