| Well, look what we found today in the garden! This is a male open and closed. The top picture shows you that the underside is white with little black dots.... so small, too, just over one inch across when open. I only record butterflies I have never seen before, and since I have now found out that these breed on holly in the spring and ivy in the summer, I should have seen them before because we have both in the garden; but never did. Such a dainty sight and we were so pleased to find him. The pics came from the UK Butterflies website, which I always refer to first when I see a new one, before contacting my friend Sarah whose hubs is an expert "flittery" person. That way I can get it right when I tell you about it! |
