just saw the first butterfly in my garden. It was a brimstone .Lovely to see it fluttering in the sunshine. Not sure which plant it prefers to lay its eggs on ? I have left lots of nettles growing on bank of stream which should help.

I think it looks like a Holly Blue. The underwing is not like a common blue. Good shots! Is it sitting on a Nandina?
