Hi, Surreylad, I didnĀ“t find any "Insect" reference when typing "comma" in my computer vocabulary. Can you type its Latin name maybe? Hope, this is not red admiral. Thank you very much in advance.

Comma=
Polygonia c-album
If it has white markings under the hind wing it is
Polygonia egea
so you had better take another look and no I did not know that I had to look it up in my butterfly book.

Surreylad I have a native Bird book like that with writing from my Dad on the front page wishing me a happy 11th birthday (65 years ago) it has full page paintings that show a large number of our everyday birds.

I have many books with dedications from the family, as I was a "book-eater" as a child confined to bed and chair at 9-12. Many of them are on nature and history. Many of them I have lost during big revisions of my bookshelves from time to time. But my most valuable book, which smell I remember until now was "Old Greek Myths and Legends." I still have it.

That is not good to have been confined to a bed and chair for three years. Only consolation you appear to have grown into a strong healthy Girl and pack a lot into your life. x

Pack a Lot? What does it mean? I was saved from operation. I could swim, cycle, shoot. I missed gymnastics however, in which i was better then boys:-)
