At the beginning of this week during my walk I observed and photographed Painted Lady butterflies in three distinctly separate locations.
Normally my sightings of this species each year are that of one only on each occasion and then usually several days/weeks later between those times.
So is this the start of a major influx of this species like 2009.?
Lovely photos Roy.. I have seen more Painted Ladies about this year.
ReplyDeleteCould be, Roy. I saw two more at the weekend. Great photos as always.
ReplyDeleteA nice walk with beautiful photos of the butterflies.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, I have been so pleased how many we have in the area too, from the park to the hill tops must have seen more than one on every trip out. Best year for me.
ReplyDeleteThanks Amanda.

ReplyDeleteHi Pete. It's looking like a good year.
DeleteLovely. Hope to see the occasional one here. Searching my blog I see it's ten years since I managed to photograph one.
ReplyDeleteThanks John, I think you should get a good chance this year.
