    I spotted this tiny but colourful mint moth this morning, perched on my Salvia 'Black and Blue'.

      The red admirals have just started appearing recently, and were enjoying the lovely day we had on Wednesday. Fortunately I had the camera outside with me. One landed on my hand for a little while, but I couldn't get the camera to try and take a pic.

          I had to wait until today to see my first Painted Lady at Durlston CP and this afternoon one turned up in the garden on the Budleia!!

          A female Common or Adonis Blue(?) was sheltering from the strong winds.

            Could it be an Idas or Nothern Blue (Plebejus idas)? @strongylodon
