A page of butterflies
One interest Pete and I
share is that of looking out for the various butterflies which come into our
garden or we see on our walks, either locally or on holiday. This interest
arose when he kept a survey of butterflies we saw in our garden and we began to
realize how many there are. Here are a few of those that I have managed to
capture on my camera.
In addition there are
a couple of other insects and caterpillars.
