Butterflies are everywhere now, and in the heat they settle on the pollen-rich flowers. They seem to have a preference for purple! Enjoy.

They settle more often towards end of summer… cos then they’re laying eggs. So you need to find out which plants feed the caterpillas

Wow! It’s one thing to see butterflies, quite another to capture them on “film” – they can be so flitty and flighty and not stay still for long enough.
Love all the photos.
