Loving these pics
My crocus is out today and 2 more, I took some pics and will post tomorrow
Lily - yes, a bhoula - jaqueline postil
This was fluttering around my garden today as I was having an after winter tidy and getting garden ready for another year of gardening. Landed on my gloves I'd taken off. Not sure if it's a moth or butterfly.
Lovely photo's everyone. I know exactly what you mean Busy, I got so excited today day over the merest suggestion of a bud on my Japanese Maple.
Tim - not an expert on butterflies but it could be a comma ? Only one i know with wiggledy edges to its wings. Great pic
Looks like a Comma to me. Saw 1 here last year, pretty thing
Definitely a Comma. Torties are more 'solid' - they have more defined triangular wings.
They're all lovely whichever type they are. We don't get Commas here but Torties, Peacocks and Red Admirals are quite plentiful.
and yes - the pic is the right way up - he was on my neighbour's garage enjoying the summer sun!
Sorry the first two are really poor pics, I'll try harder.
Here is a tortoiseshell from my Garden last Summer. Beautiful creature.

I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
