Gatekeeper - WildWed73

Not much time for blipping today, so it's back to the butterflies.  This is a gatekeeper I found by the river.  It could possibly be the last (different species of) butterflyI find this year.  Butterflies are still around, but many less than there were.  In case I'm right about that, this is my list of species blipped this summer:

So this is my entry for WildWed.  Big thanks to Cailleach for hosting.  Not much else today.  I had a cup of tea and a long chat with my old gent and have made a shepherds’ pie.  After yesterday it’s rather nice to go slower.
 
Have a fun evening and a good day tomorrow  xx
