Thank you ever so much, Christiane. :-) I find these butterflies quite tricky to photograph while they're feeding on flowers such as buddleia, but when they decide to have a break on a sunny hedge, it is an opportunity to catch them like this, although it doesn't always work for me. ;-) Stay well. :-)

Beautiful image, I had many caterpillars in the garden a few weeks ago, they are now just emerging now so hopefully I'll get a few shots too.

Thank you, Adrian, and fantastic to hear that your place played host to all those larvae. It seems like this season is the best this species has had for many years. I hope you get some good photos. :-)
