Took these earlier this year, if you look in the shed,garage,local cave,you might come across one or two hibernating. I know its not a butterfly, but a beauty non the less.

Just lovely Dave.
They are just stunning (and good enough to be on the cover of the latest BC mag too)
Nice capture

Re: Herald Moth
Thanks for your positive feedback Denise, the wee beastie must have been hibernating in the house somewhere as it appeared in our hall this spring!
Have to blame a schoolmate and a teacher from school in the 70's for my love of insects! We had an insect club at school and ran a moth trap weekly, it was my inspiration to a mis-spent youth! This led on to Butterflies, Dragonflies, beetles etc.
Best wishes
