Wildlife in Ed D's Garden.

[SnappyMac]

Following on from finding Red Legged Partridges in the garden, today we had a visit from a pair of Grey Partridges. Only managed to get one on a photo.

Looking forward to the end of May. I can get my lawn cut.

I can't remember the last time I saw a grey partridge, nice visitors and photo Ed.

A small Tortoiseshell butterfly feasting on a flower. It looks rather tatty and shows signs of an encounter with a spider web.

He does look like he's been in the wars! Great sharpness in the butterfly

Small Tortoiseshell are one of the hibernating species and can look vey tatty when they finally emerge.
