Butterflies.....
« on: July 19, 2013, 14:24:12 »
On my walk yesterday we saw  Marbled White http://www.britishbutterflies.co.uk/species-info.asp?vernacular=Marbled%20White and a Purple Emperor http://www.ukbutterflies.co.uk/species.php?vernacular_name=Purple%20Emperor#Larva. The Purple Emperor stayed with us for ages, unfortunatly it didnt land to drink sweat.

Both were stunning and my first ever sighting of both....brilliant walk that one  :sunny: :toothy10:
