Just nipped out to snap them in the act and here are a couple of the ugly brutes indulging in a feeding frenzy :rolleyes:.

Lovely shot, Alf. I think these are small tortoiseshells, as they have the white dot on the forewing.

Sorry to be pedantic. But I was wondering if I'd been seeing large ones too. :)

I normally see different sized Tortoiseshells and always assumed they were large and small but now I think they were just male (small) and female (large) so I just learned something :D
I think I have a Painted Lady there as well ?

Nice. Apparently these migrate. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/8068050.stm
It's funny to think of a butterfly flying to the UK from Africa.
And last but not least and I really should get on with some work now :rolleyes:a Red AdmiralQuote:
