Well, actually the second one I've seen, but the first one that I was able to photograph. And for a change, it's a comma, rather than a small tortoiseshell.
I caught it at a good time as it sunbathed on a fallen leaf down the cycle track, gathering a bit of energy up for a bit more fluttering about. I must say, I always feel a slight bit of superiority noticing these things as other folk stroll by oblivious.
But only a tiny bit.

Haven't seen any Comma's yet - but I'll keep looking!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful = thank you
ReplyDeleteI love your first-of-the-year spots, makes me look harder to see things.
ReplyDeleteNo sign of butterflies here yet but 3 big bumbles spotted yesterday
You deserve to feel like that - I look forward to your photographs and your 'firsts'
ReplyDeleteWell spotted. I've only seen a quick glimpse of a butterfly battling the breezy weather.
ReplyDeleteCommas seem to be the early, er, birds this year in terms of being up and about
