BUTTERFLIES

[Placido]

Nice shot, Jacksparrow. Glad they're somewhere, haven't seen one yet but as Greenfinch says, there are bumbles around.

Nice one Jacksparrow.

A good day for Butterflies today. Several orange Tips and Holly Blues along with a large White and a Brimstone

[Placido]

I saw an orange tip and quite a few brown ones

[Placido]

Small white butterfly this morning. I think the technical term is Small White .......

[Jacksparrow]

Titter ye not Missus. Small White is a perfectly acceptable identification as long as that is what it was. The other option is a female Orange Tip which is white and black and very similar to the Small White

[Placido]

It was white and it was small . That's good enuf for me

[nuthatch]

Oh sorry, I didn't read it as a 'titter ye not' situation. I thought Placi was having one of her laughs ... well I thought it was very funny (as Placi probably thought) ... the person naming a small white butterfly a Small White .... I mean they could have called it a Snowdrop Fairy or something .....
