Monday morning blues..

..and Browns and Small Coppers and Brimstones and Painted Ladies and Small Tortoiseshells and Clouded Yellows etc etc.

An excellent Bank Holiday, better than working, day. Morning and early afternoon up the reserve, meeting lovely people, bothering butterflies and lying around watching Ravens. Then relaxing in the park with a friend for a picnic with a bottle of wine.

I squeezed every minute of relaxation and fun out of the extra day off.
