And loads of congrats on that mega-cool lifer, that is still not in my list!!! It's very cute and furry!!! o<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> And the pics are lovely!!! :t:I've been too busy to update my findings but I'm going to do it quickly. In the sunny days we had at the end of February I still managed a couple of new Butterflies:Cleopatra (1st pic)Green-veined White (2nd pic)Oddly, no Red Admirals at all!!! :eek!: It's one of the first Butterflies to appear in my area but this year I can't find any. The temperatures are not helping... we had many sunny days during March but very fresh and only Brimstones and Small and Green-veined Whites seem to gather the courage to have a little fly around. Besides, for some reason they refuse to stop and to take pictures of them is very exhausting and the results little rewarding.I wish very good luck to the Butterflies lovers all over the world for a very suceessful Butterfly season in 2009!!! :t: Cheers!
