I keep getting attached by a brown fritillary type butterfly that has taken up residence around my patio. Seriously, it appears regularly and will fly at/on me Or my hubby if we are around there. This has been going on for 2 weeks. I googled but can’t see any similar behaviour, I should try and video it to prove it’s not a joke.
So odd. Anyone else had this? How long do those butterflies live??
Some butterflies, like purple emperors, will attack objects and birds much larger than themselves, to defend territory. I can’t imagine your flutter will do you much damage

Brilliant shot @Sheps
I play with plants and soil and sometimes it's successful
@Slow-worm same for me regards sightings, only seen one this year in the garden.
"Black-horned Gem"
a common species, but the first time I've seen one in the garden.
