I was on the allotment today and saw a really pretty pale blue butterfly. Its a shame I didn't have a camera with me. Looks like it could be a good year for the butterfly.

I saw one last weekend flitting around some ivy, and I'm still seeing plenty of peacocks.
As you say it looks being a good year.  :)

Almost certainly a Holly Blue - one of my favourites.  I've had a few commas and the usual whites - so much better than last year already.  ;D

Had two in the garden today, only saw them from the side, not fully open.
Not sure what they are but smaller than a Cabbage White.

Edit : After having a look at some pictures I think it's a Holly Blue.
Please don't be offended by my nickname 'Mortality'
As to its history it was the name of a character I played in an online game called 'Everquest'
The character 'Mortality Rate' was a female Dark Elf Necromancer, the name seemed apt at the time and has been used alot by me over the years.
