Smashing photo. I had one of these in the garden the other day. Not so easy to find as the Painted Lady this year.

Lovely photo of butterfly on a particularly beautiful Eryngium. Not being cocky, just bought one but it's nowhere near as blue as this one, lol.

Lovely photo Janey!
I have seen a lot more Butterflies in our garden this year - when I go to get my camera they have gone!!!

Aw...Anita, there certainly are lots now....I wonder if they are newly hatched?

What a stunning pic, Janey...like most folk I am usually too slow with my camera...but agree there seem to be many more moths and butterflies around this year. It will be interesting to see what the Butterfly Conservation have to say at the end of the summer and if they agree with us all.

They are pretty aren't they B_lourenco........I remember Flowercrazy saying these were opposites on the colour wheel, so contrast and complement each other....:o)

Hi Janey - I've got quite a lot of flutterbys too this year :-) I think that plant is Erygium planum - mine attracts the flutterbys too...
