It's well overdue for starting. This is the link to last years thread
Butterflies and Moths 2023
There haven't been a lot of butterflies around here this year so far. The earliest was a fresh Red Admiral on the 3rd of january
Since then I've seen a Speckled Wood & Peacock. There have been Brimstone's about but I haven't seen them. Plenty of time left in the year to go chasing butterflies.
Best wishes

Just a few from last week.
Quite a few of these moths about at La Corbière, Jersey. Not sure what they are ?
These were taken in the Howard Davis Park, St Helier, Jersey.

Looks good to me Wendy
I didn't know you were on Jersey. A very nice Island, our first visit, our last booking was cancelled during covid. I did bring the sunshine... :)
If you come again give me a shout and if I'm here I will happily play tour guide
Thanks Germain
I'll come too if you call me YOUNG man ...
Great shot of the moth, and the Red Admiral ...

Silver Y moth. Quite a few out in the long meadow grass.
