Clouded Yellow Butterfly @ Draycote Water.


Having a quiet walk at Draycote Water this morning, and having just left Bob Hazell, he phoned me to say that he had found a Clouded Yellow Butterfly at the end of Farborough Bank. This migrant, uncommon butterfly is really spectacular and difficult to capture as it constantly led us a merry dance!

Exasperation by Bob!

    Excellent shots Kevin.
    I saw one of these very fleetingly yesterday. Beautiful butterflies.

    Not sure I like this new layout.

    Thanks Keith - I'm not sure about the layout either! Experimenting! My first Clouded Yellow so well pleased!

    Yea, the comment box doesn't always show for me. Had a couple of attempts until it appeared.
