At the beginning of the week we were staying in Winchester so we went across to Bentley Wood hoping for Purple Emperor, no such luck. We also called in at Collard Hill on the way up and back for Large Blue but all we got for our troubles was a Marbled White and a lot of rain.
As usual, consistently amazing images from you. However, the one of the damselfly put a big smile on my face. Excellent!, and thanks for sharing them with us.
Purple Emperor!, you were lucky getting a Marbled White John, what with the awful weather we have had. Not seen a Marbled White in the place I would normally expect to see as yet this year.
Your butterflies, especially the black and white and then the cocoa brown coloured species, amazing and the aqua blue eyes of that dragonfly/damselfly...how glorious~
The Marbled White is so lovely, a good find regardless!! I have been seeing Ringlets too, and a few Swallowtails, but not many more butterflies.The dragonfly and mating bugs are also good finds and splendid macros.
I just marvel at your excellent macro photographs! Superb detail and color. I love the beautiful pattern on the Marbled White. The damselfly image brought a big smile to my face. Brilliant work!
JR & Sue. So many insect photo's, it is impossible to pick a favourite, because the are all so good. Marbled White's are a great butterfly, I have yet to see one this year.
Thanks for leaving a comment in my blog. It's great you've been able to shoot the butterflies/moths. I had a good butterfly season in Florida, will be blogging soon.

Sorry about the Purple Emperor but that's difficult. Top shots, I think I need a macro lens. Well done. Mike
