Enjoying the Cow Parsley. I've not seen as many of these this year despite there seeming to be higher numbers of other butterflies

Good numbers in the early spring, then there is the gap after eggs are laid. Hopefully soon we’ll be seeing them again. Lovely image to remind us of their beauty

@jesika2 sadly here in early spring there have been only a very few this year. High numbers of holly blues which is unusual here and much higher numbers of brimstones too.
