Default [OT] First butterfly

You're not the only one surprised, Gianna. I saw a Red Admiral in the garden
in Wokingham this morning. The book says that they arrive in May from the
continent, but I wonder if this one over-wintered here.

While out walking today, I was surprised to encounter a butterfly.

Based on general colour and behaviour, it was probably a Small

Tortoiseshell.
