Thankyou David ,and also to you ! That pictures a few years old.......I only managed a few Coppers on the plant,the Observatory warden ( The plants in Dungeness Bird Obs rear garden ) has a similar shot with 30+ on it ! Its not particularly unusual to see 15+ on certain plants.........the difficulty is actually managing to capture that number on the plant at one time !

It's much snowier than that now, incidentally, if anyone's heading out for skiing! Huge amounts have fallen in the last week!

Happy Christmas for tomorrow everyone, or whatever greeting is relevant to you at this time. And all the very best for 2025! Once the festivities are done with, then I start to think of my favourite signs of spring, not least an Orange-tip emerging from its overwintering chrysalis!

A Very Happy Christmas from me to all on UKB! Currently in Yorkshire and with a spell of warm sunshine both yesterday and today I hoped a Red Admiral in its festive Santa colours might appear, but sadly not... :)

Cheers,
