Lol.....Thanks Sandra....Have gone back and edited :-)

lol jem, i didnt know one from the other when i started taking an interest in them, all learning ;o)))

Love butterflies, trying now to learn how to attracct more into the garden.

thats great jem, well you made a great start with budleja bush, and lots of cottage garden plants are good like lavender,verbena, which i have, so keep them comming ;o))

Haven't seen too many of these this year. Last year was a different matter, there were hundreds of them.

I never knew that they had such furry bodies.....was a pleasure to know that this one had visited our garden.

It's a fine photo of the Small Tortoiseshell.

Thanks very much although I can't take the credit for this shot. I was at work and Andy was out in the garden and got quite a few shots of this to show me what had visited...seeing this made my day.

Thats a great photo Jem, lovely and clear
