Peacock basking in the sun on the stone steps

I had half an hour out in the garden in the afternoon with my camera and a longish lens. It’s the Big Butterfly Count at the moment so here’s my list:

1 Peacock
1 Small tortoiseshell (glimpsed as it was passing)
2 Meadow Brown’s
2 Gatekeepers (there are a lot of them about this year, I’m seeing them on my lane walk too.)
2 small whites.

I spotted a very small pristine Gatekeeper flying along the hedgerow of Dance Lane. I’ve noticed before that their size can vary.
