Red admiral (Vanessa atalanta) on cherry blossoms

This was taken in the adjacent Arboretum, but I put it in to show what a spectacle is made by combining this pretty butterfly with the glorious blossoms. There were scores and scores of red admirals all over the tree, so many that people were stopping to take in this spectacle. Well worth checking out in the next few days.

Lovely photo Christine. It must have been quite the site, these colourful butterflies on the pink blossoms.
