Having the thyme of my life!

It was lovely and sunny this morning but the cloud has come in and it's now turned cold. Still plenty of bees feeding on the thyme near our outside table and chairs but trying to get a good shot was very difficult. This was one of the best out of a bunch of nearly 20 photos.

Earlier this morning there were two Small Tortoiseshells on the buddleia. One disappeared and never came back but this one stayed for ages and allowed me to get very close, they are such beautiful creatures and always brighten up my day when I see one :)
