Sunbathing! by julienne1

Sunbathing!

Oh it is so good to finally have some warm sunshine after the recent siberian temperatures. The warmth has brought this Small Tortoiseshell butterfly out of hibernation and it is basking in the sunshine on a pussy willow tree. I do hope the next cold spell forecast for next week doesn't wreak too much havoc on these newly emerged insects.
Torn & tattered but wonderful to see. 2 briefly flew into my garden today, our first of the year.
So pleased you were able to get such a lovely shot which has to be an envious favourite
