\n\nA lot of white butterflies (mostly green-veined, large & small) out & about on Friday. Some flightily red admirals too.
\n\n\n\nLater, beside the track an excited green-veined white butterfly fluttering amount the leaves. Underneath a leaf a small white hanging upside down. Misplaced affection?
