At Last.....

..... I have managed to get a decent shot of a butterfly.  I think it is a Small Tortoiseshell.  Just happened to look out of the front window in time to see this butterfly settle on the purple Hebe.  Did not think I would be able to get my camera and go outside before it flew away.  It seemed to be quite happy just resting there and posing for it's portrait.  In fact there was another one at the back of the plant, but couldn't get them both in the shot at the same time ( I suppose I mustn't be greedy).
