Butterflies
The spring weather has brought our butterflies out of hibernation. On Wednesday, Ian reported a peacock, brimstones, commas and a small tortoiseshell.

In winter I store my wheelbarrows propped against a fence and often find in spring that a butterfly has been overwintering inside it!
There were always small tortoiseshells wintering behind the wardrobe in my spare room. My new house doesn’t have wardrobes but it does have sheds.
