A Comma butterfly was in the back garden this morning and another Comma was basking at the front this afternoon.

I photographed a small (in size) Large White butterfly on my pink Buddleia this morning.

Visited the Matara garden at Kingscote this afternoon. Speckled Wood butterflies were about - I saw 4 of them.


Two patches of Water Mint next to the ponds had feeding butterflies. A couple of Comma butterflies and a couple of Small Tortoiseshell butterflies were at one pond. Three Small Tortoiseshells and a Peacock butterfly were beside the other pond.

Hi Linda,
I am a regular visitor to your website - I think it's fantastic!
You mentioned that you haven't seen many butterflies in your garden this year. I too have not seen anywhere near as many as last year although I did get a visit from a red admiral and a speckled wood yesterday. This was the first time I've seen a red admiral in our garden so I was very pleased. I haven't seen any small tortoiseshells at all in the garden though this year which is a shame.
