Butterflies

I took part in a walk along the new footpath from Peebles to Eddleston with a stop for lunch at the Horseshoe Inn,.  The walk was organised by the Peebles Walking Football club which Mark is a member of.  There were plenty of thistles along the side of the path and the (tortoiseshell ?) butterflies seemed to find them very attractive as there were lots of them enjoying the thistle flowers.
