Red Admiral sunbathing

Monday 21st November 2005 - Day 338

Went for a lunchtime walk today, and despite the cold, there were still Bumble Bee's and Butterfly's flitting about - don't know for how long though!

A couple more from the lunchtime promenade...

Beautiful butterfly on this very interesting healed wound of the tree. It almost has a butterly shape.

I like the way the scar on the tree is butterfly-shaped. Good find and nice of him to pose for you!

Most unusual in this cold weather. Interesting detail in the wood.

Big YES for this shot . Great to see the butterfly looking so good and against such a rustic background.
