It's so good to see the butterflies back!

The Marjoram is covered with Gatekeeper butterflies and the Buddlea with Tortoiseshells and one or two Green-veined whites. After our appalling summer weather it's so good to see the butterflies re-appearing in the garden. One of my ambitions for the summer is to be able to take a butterfly photo that's pin sharp - this is nearly there but not quite.

Having spent yesterday in bed with a debilitating bug, which left me feeling too ill to blip, I'm on the mend today and have managed to get myself out and about in the garden. My next job - to sort out prints for the table-top sale on Saturday. After all the lying around yesterday my back feels ready for some movement.
