I spotted this by chance...

Every evening after work i water my garden for about half an hour. Walking around, thumb over the end of the hose... ' traditional style ' !!! It wa such a surprise to catch this Comma butterfly at rest. This is the first time i can remember ever seeing this butterfly. Usually i have Peacock, White's, Painted Lady and Tortoise Shell so it was great to see it.

Speaking of the Painted Lady butterfly, last year whilst cutting my fron lawn in the afternoon/early evening i was amazed at how many of this type flew past me at head height... all in the same direction. It was like my garden was slap bang under a ' Butterfly Airway '!!!
