24 juli 2006

This is my favourite butterfly, love the colours. The first one of these I see this year.
I left a ladder next to the buddleja (it's over 2m high), so that when I see one land, I can immediately climb up. Does this sound a bit ridiculous ??

The ladder is a brilliant idea, as the pictures prove. What a beautiful creature.
