Such a pretty little butterfly this one I think Mark..... and that's a splendid picture you've taken of him lad.

It's wonderful to see you posting again.... and with a new name too LOL. I hope you've been keeping well through this last difficult year.

Thanks Delia, yeah just about been keeping well during these strange times, at least it's given me a chance to do more nature walks albeit only local ones. Hope you're well too. Glad the name change didn't confuse things too much! :)
