Some late butterflies

Despite the nights becoming increasingly cold, it's been nice to see some butterflies flying this late into November. A peacock was seen here at Parc Slip yesterday and today at Cwm Colhuw (near Llantwit Major) there was a red admiral flitting over the scrub. The highlight was definitely seeing a rather fresh-looking clouded yellow there however - brightened up a chilly autumn morning!

  1. Another Red Admiral at Parc Slip today! They're really making the most of the sun.

  2. And one at Forest Farm, Cardiff, on Saturday too. Flying strongly in sunshine despite an air temperature of only 6 or 7 degrees C.
