My first Butterfly (Photographed) of the Spring.
This year its the turn of the Small Tortoiseshell.
I found several feeding on Lesser Celandines beside a river bank.
Some are in better condition than others, but overall they appear to have survived the Winter quite well.
Isn't it great to see the first butterflies in spring?!!
ReplyDeleteSome of those look like "oldies" from last season, I bet they are in a hurry to lay the 2017 first generation!!
Lovely post, Roy!
Certainly is Noushka. Thanks.
