[OT] Early butterfly
I saw a butterfly in the garden this afternoon. It had a brown hairy
body, orangish wings with dark brown spots. It's not a subject I know anything about but this does seem fairly early. Any expert knowledge out there? Max temp 20.3 today. Norman. (delete "thisbit" twice to e-mail) -- Norman Lynagh Weather Consultancy Chalfont St Giles 85m a.s.l. England |

No. It wasn't that. A red admiral is one of the few butterflies I can recognise :-) Norman. (delete "thisbit" twice to e-mail) -- Norman Lynagh Weather Consultancy Chalfont St Giles 85m a.s.l.

Any expert knowledge out there? Probably a small tortoiseshell. I saw one too this afternoon. They can sit out the winter in houses and buildings and be roused by a rise in temperature such as today.
