Warming

The sun out today and pleasantly warm so the butterflies have put in an appearance.
I failed to get a picture of the Red Admirals on the buddleia and the Comma on the ice plant was out of focus. However I did get a picture of this rather tired and possibly drunk Tortoiseshell taking in a few rays. The clematis is amazing after a slow start, the blooms are well over 6” across and there are lots of buds still to open.
