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

Great shot of the Gatekeeper Wendy - very nice condition. We get Speckled Wood around here, but very few Gatekeepers. Well captured ...
Great assortment Mr Kes. Still very little to see around here - the odd white, and Speckled Wood, and they aren't landing much. The only Painted Ladies are in the town centre late at night ... .
