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

Can never get close to them Snappy to get a video.
Any guesses as to what plant has attracted the orangetip?
Well done! I haven't seen a Green Hairstreak ...
Thanks BD
I am not sure of the flower tuwit, it looks a bit like wild geranium but I would be guessing...
Herb Robert (Geranium robertianum) would be my best guess.
Silver-ground Carpet moth
Light emerald moth
Male common heath
brown silver line moth
I particularly like that male common heath Mr Kes.
Well I don't like your Common Heath Moth .... cos I've never seen one ... . Not that I'm jealous ...
