Autumn Butterflies

A day of two halves today, with a lovely warm morning and early afternoon turning into a grey, drizzly and rather depressing afternoon and evening, in which I've just done a really slow 3km run.

But in the bright weather, there were still a lot of butterflies getting some fluttery exercise, the late season species and a lot of painted ladies around too.

They are running out of food sources, so they are now turning up in numbers on flowers you wouldn't expect, like the ones in the mini sconce that pollinators don't normally bother with.

  2. Beautiful photos of the butterflies. I spotted a Painted Lady on the patio this morning and we are still getting Speckled Wood, "whites" and Red Admirals.

  3. Super photos, Si. We had it the other way round today- it started cool and has ended sunny :o). Saw a brown hairstreak at Knepp a couple of weeks back- it made my day.

  5. I know there are still a lot of people suffering from different health issues and are therefore looking for solution. I bring you Good news. There is a man called Dr ROBINSON BUCKLER a herbal practitioner who helped cure me from Genital herpes and shingles, this i had suffered from for the past 2years and i have spent so much money trying to survive from it. I got my healing by taking the herbal medicine he sent to me to drink for about 14days . 14days after completion of the dosage, I went for a medical checkup and I was tested Genital Herpes NEGATIVE. I’m sharing this so that other people can know of this great healer called Dr ROBINSON BUCKLER because I got to know him through a friend he cured from too. I was made to understand that he can cure several other deadly diseases and infections. Don’t die in ignorance and don’t let that illness take your life. Contact Dr ROBINSON BUCKLER through his email........................robinsonbuckler@ ((h o t m a i l.)) com
