Butterfly day

I found this lovely brimstone butterfly down by the Itchen Navigation Canal this morning.  I think they're almost my favourite butterflies, with those beautifully sculpted wings and the two discreet brown spots that turn out to be brilliant orange if you're ever lucky enough to see the wings open.  However, to ring the changes I've also put a pair of green-veined whites having fun in Extras.

And this afternoon I tidied the front garden (boy, did it need it!) so now I'm feeling rather smug!

Today being Wednesday, it's results day for WildFlowerWeek.  Hearts and Hon Mentions for WFW20_17 will be given out shortly and listed below..  xx
