Butterfly in December

I had come up to the house to get some refreshements and looked over at the plumbago only to see this lovely butterfly skirting from flower to flower. I just had time to run in for my camera before it floated away.  It isn't a wonder really with this unusually warm December weather and I'm just glad we still have flowers for those who need them.  It was 25C again today at lunchtime with full sunshine.

Knackered now and ready for a lazy evening.
