A morning's walk along the Grand Union Canal at Slapton, Buckinghamshire
Early morning whilst the water was still
A bit later a deadly Comma on its own warning sign...
....followed by a Red Admiral sitting on the tip of the rod of the no fishing sign five minutes later. Why these two different species found these signs good resting places I don't know. Perhaps they reflected heat as it was still quite early?
The Comma moved to the hedge...
....to feed on ivy flowers.
The delicate colours of a Green-veined White. Its eyes are exquisite.
I only saw one individual of each of the above butterfly species, plus one Speckled Wood of which I failed to properly photograph
