4th October : Garden Butterflies.

Following all the recent record breaking rainfall it was good to get a decent spell of sunshine which encouraged a decent gathering of Butterflies in the garden, possibly the most seen this year at any one time. A Peacock & Brimstone passed through, as 4 Red Admirals fed on the Ivy flowers alongside a couple of Commas.
