Even more butterflies

Thank you David G for this very prompt addition to Saskia’s butterfly photo library:

Now we just need to match names to butterflies (and moths).

Butterflies Galore

Thank you Saskia for these photos and the following:

Hasn’t it been a fantastic year for butterflies? I still have tens of Small Tortoiseshells, some Peacocks, a Red Admiral, a Brimstone and a Painted Lady (I hope I’ve got their names correct!) feeding on the Valerian and Buddleia , whilst others are sunning themselves in the late Autumn sun. The only one that I haven’t seen this year is the spectacular Humming-bird Hawkmoth.

What visiting butterflies have you seen in your garden recently? (I’m a complete novice so only recognise the very colourful species!)

Saskia T

More photos of any other species taken locally are most welcome. (Fiona, if your verbena is still so busy, that might make a great shot.)
