I know the name of this butterfly!!
Well barges and blue skies were both a bit shy today - but whilst looking for a bud or two I saw this lovely butterfly, silently making the canal side look prettier! I wasn't sure what type it was so I googled it to find that it's an Orange Tip butterfly….. Doh - I should have guessed!!! Love it when things make sense! Do you know, I don't think I've ever taken a pic of a butterfly before - I know - at my age!!! So I'm happy with my first one being orange tipped! :)) They enjoy fluttering around in damp areas which is why it was by the canal I suspect -and this is a male, the female having no orange tips - what a shame!
Middle one and bf are back from their Parisienne adventure this evening - I will be rustling up Jamie Oliver's Piri Piri chicken - if you've never tried it - it's a pleasure to make and oh so good! :) Jamie O's Piri Piri Chicken :)
(The green of the leaves on this blip are so different to my photo on my mac - no idea why???)
