On Saturday morning I returned to the glade in Hill House Wood and whilst Silver-washed Fritillary was again the predominant species there were many others including Painted Lady.

Enjoyed the Painted Lady photos. We get them here in the Southeastern US too, but in small numbers.
ReplyDeleteFrank, these are gorgeous! I especially like the last shot, looking under the butterfly. The thistle is so pretty...
ReplyDeleteThe Painted Ladies are a beauty!Nice shots.
ReplyDeleteWe're so lucky to have been invaded by these very pretty flutters. Well caught on "film" Frank and look forward to the "to be continued"....
ReplyDeleteLovely butterflies! I see they enjoy thistle there as well as they do here.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the post on the Jersey towers and your explanation as to why they were designed as they are.
Very nice! I like them all, but esp. the first one.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos Frank and also of the butterflies on the previous post, I can't remember ever seeing a White Admiral.
ReplyDeleteGreat macro shots.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shootin', Frank! We'll sit tight for the other to come.
ReplyDeleteYouve got some great butterfly pics there, so much more imaginative than mine!
ReplyDeleteAll excellent shots Frank; but that first is a stunner.
ReplyDeleteI hope you don't mind my saying that these are FAB! Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHi "Early Birders".
ReplyDeleteThank you for your appreciation of the Painted Lady, one of the many, many thousands that have invaded our shores from North Africa this year.
The closed wing image is the best I have seen Frank.
