What a satisfied Butterfly!! Looks so very, very grateful to the wonderful
pleasure you have given them Janey...such a lovely pic : ~ ))

Beautiful photo Janey , we haven't had many this year so it's nice to see yours .. :o)

Great photo of a lovely butterfly, Janey! We had many of these down on the allotment as we have an enormous Buddleia at the bottom. It had dozens of bees & many butterflies, especially the Great Cabbage White. I did try on at least one occasion to get a photo of a Peacock butterfly but it didn't keep still long enough. :-(
I've added this to my favourites.

Thanks Balcony, the Buddleias are such an attraction for them especially the wild type........good luck with your allotment....:o)

Really lovely photo Janey ....a touch of true summer ;-)

I was down beside the Buddleia this morning when I spotted a Tortoiseshell on a flower spike. I whipped out my phone & tried to take a photo but it moved just out of reach so I tried to take it "blind" but when I saw the result on the computer this afternoon I realized it had gone! ;-(

Thanks Richard...:o))
Lol Balc.....looks like a good day today....September tomorrow, fingers crossed we'll have some warm, late summer weather.....with plenty of butterflies....:o)

Lovely to see your butterfly pick......they are few and far between here as well -((

There are no end of butterflies, mostly the Great Whites, down on the allotment. Bees a plenty, too. Ladybirds by the 100s! I've even seen some Lacewings!

Thanks Alice.....we've had a lot here today...:o)
Thats good news Balc........yes so many Ladybirds around this year!

Gorgeous!

:o))

Very beautiful butterfly and what a lovely picture.A real piece for a photo contest.

Aw, thanks Camillia....:o) How are you doing for butterflies over in Chitwan?

You know that we have about 600 species of butterflies here in Nepal and many species among them are found in Chitwan too.But unfortunately I have not pictured any of them yet.I will try not to miss out the oppurtunities that I get in the comming days.

Janey another fantastic picture.........

Wow, you were truly blessed :)
