Butterfly And Caterpillar Corner

Good afternoon all my friends I am going to try and locate as many town and country butterfly's this year which will starting tomorrow mean endless treks across country in the burning sun,oh well someone got to do it

To Day we have "The Common Blue"its a little scruffy will try to do better

 

Good evening Jenny of course you can and everyone else would be most welcome my friend,the thread will only be a success if we all post our photos,I would be over the moon if we could make this Gardeners Corner Butterfly Thread,I just thought that the buzzing and flying thread has so many different species on it that an butterfly thread would be a good idea,

Ps I waited for a long time for it to open its wings and when it did I missed it

 

Good morning Spruce,Jenny.Zigs,Loli and Strongy thank you my friends, your comments really are appreciated

 

This mornings results a little disappointing and very warm walking through the fields

Not at all sure is this a tortoiseshell?



A small Blue

 

Woo said I should put this one on here. I found it in Rye, yesterday. You must have missed it on your travels, Woo


Does this one count, as well - it's a 'ginger haired blue wing'

 

Shiney they are certainly two that I haven't seen before,I' ve had a look in my book but cannot find them the first photo looks similar to a RYEstone Golden Sussex ,The second photo is very rare ,much more attractive ,,loves the shade,and is often seen in the Home Counties,thanks for sharing
