Is THIS the last one?

"Should we go to the Meadow?" asked hubby. Just a fraction above freezing, clear, bright & sunny, the kind of weather I really like. Will someone please arrange for insects to come out in force in these glorious conditions? Some insects did come out to play. Wasps, flies, Ladybirds a Shieldbug, 4 Common Darters, 3 boys & a girl busy ovipositing in the pond and this beautiful Small Copper butterfly.

@girlie Thank you, Robin. I knew people were still seeing butterflies but didn't really expect (hoped) to find this little gem at the pond.

@lynnz Thanks, Lynn. Although I didn't see it, I was told a Small Copper had been seen at the Meadow today, perhaps this one again.

Beautiful.

Thank you, Sue. I doubt I'll see any more Coppers this year but there's still hope for Brimstone

@joev It's a delight in autumn to see these bright little gems. Sadly their days are now over - until next year
Thanks, Joe
