I spotted a nice one on some buddleia as I walked into town today, but it flew off when I stopped to photograph it.

lovely G :)
they're still feasting on my buddleia :) the most i've counted was 12 at one sitting  ;D
i've got white profusion but i managed to liberate some seeds from a purple & pink one on my last visit to the garden centre :P ;D
so another couple of courses can be added to next years buffet table :) :)

Do you think a white one would cope okay in semi-shade?  If so, and forgive my cheek,  I've love a pinch of seed if you have any spare.   ;D
