I don't really have the right lens for close-ups but this little orange-tip butterfly caught my eye. They're a true sign of Spring, and come out at the same time as bluebells, which provide a nectar source. This one is sitting on a garlic mustard plant, on which they lay their eggs - though the butterfly pictured is a male.
Super!
ReplyDeleteIt is a beauty and an unusual wing pattern. Orange!!!! supporting my football team.
ReplyDeleteHow pretty! I've never seen one like that before.
ReplyDeleteI saw a couple of these beauties just yesterday, first of the season.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely!
ReplyDeleteThat is a new one to me. I don't remember seeing an orange-tipped butterfly.
