Seen several white butterflies this morning, did make out that one was a small white. Also a speckled wood, a red admiral and a peacock. Was nice and sunny.
Small White sightings at this time of year might actually be female Orange Tips who look very similar.

Today up at the lane, an orange tip butterfly and what could have been a green vein. Was nice and sunny.

A warmer day than what we've been having brought the butterflies out. My first Large White of the year plus a Holly Blue and an Orange Tip.

Good spots JS. Have not seen a holly blue yet, nor a large white.

I have two Holly trees and plenty of Ivy which would explain why the Holly Blues were everywhere today enjoying the summery weather.

Spotted a holly blue while walking the lanes this morning. First one of the new season.

Not in my garden but out on a walk near home I saw a Ringlet and a Marbled White. We seem a little short of the usual white butterflies so far.
