Butterfly heaven






Today the garden is full of butterflies and I have to resort to books and the internet to try and identify some of them. Posing here clockwise from the top are what I think is a small copper, a rather battered peacock looking stunning against my flowers and a speckled wood. We also have lots of small tortoiseshells probably because we also have lots of nettles.
Dave is less happy with the number of cabbage white caterpillars that he is picking daily off the cabbages.
