At long last I managed to snap a shot of a Brimstone at work.
Only taken 15yrs π see them most years whizzing along the paths in the wood but they never settle.

Still quite cold but the sun made some effort to warm things up so a few butterflies presented themselves. This Green-veined White for one. And a Stonechat sitting pretty. Butterfly Conservation π¦ West Midlands Butterfly Conservation RSPB HerefordshireBirds

This female Orange-tip has been roosting on a head of garlic mustard in our Worcs garden all day.
During sunny spells she takes off to nectar but, as soon as it clouds up, always returns to the same flower head to roost.

This is a rather quirky stance for a butterfly, but I rather like this. Handheld macro of a male Orange Tip.
