Hi John & Sue great to see an early Brimstone maybe the mild weather will kick Spring off early this year, Are the Avocets still at St Clement ? as I may go up on Friday Hope to CU soon.
heye what, flowers and butterflies... No way! We got a beautiful snow storm yesterday adn the winter is back! Gosh I envy you! Well done with these beautiful pictures of this ncie butterfly!
That one has survived its hibernation in remarkably good condition John - I suspect it was indoors somewhere. It'll only take another cold snap to send it back into its winter quarters. Lovely images, as always, John.
JR and Sue. You did well finding the early Brimstone, I like them for their unusual shape. Like me you probably cannot wait for the other butterflies and insects to emerge.
Lovely shots. When I first spotted the thumbnail of the first photo in my reader's list, I though it was a green leaf!
ReplyDeleteWow.! Thats very early.
ReplyDeleteThats right, they can't be or maybe.........
