Another new butterfly in the garden
Whilst clearing up some of the vegetable beds this afternoon I noticed a butterfly species new to the garden. I saw a single Small Copper (Lycaena phlaeas) feeding on the flowers of the Common Fleabane (Pulicaria dysenterica) growing in the margins of the pond.
Unfortunately I didn’t manage to get a photo of the butterfly but I did take one of the Fleabane flowers:
