Garden Butterflies

What a summer we are having, if you ignore our month in Northern Spain in May/June.  The weather has been hot and sunny ever since our return and we have not had rain for 6 weeks.  Yesterday was no exception with temperatures climbing to 31C.  Butterflies have been plentiful in the garden this year, especially whites: large, green veined and small.  We have also had regular holly blues and speckled wood and, yesterday, a comma.
