#TitliTuesday with the beautiful #butterflies I loved observing last Saturday. Comma, small tortoiseshell and my favourite peacock. All in very good order after waking up from their winter sleep. The top left comma was egg laying. ๐Ÿ› #Lancashire @savebutterflies.bsky.social #vitaminN

#TitliTuesday My last post of #Spring #butterflies to be seen in the UK. So far I've showcased comma, small tortoiseshell & peacock, today it's #brimstone, such wonderful camouflage as they look like fallen leaves, but in flight are a lime or buttery glow. @savebutterflies.bsky.social

#TitliTuesday Another of the #spring #butterflies to see in the UK. Red admiral didn't used to overwinter here as it was too cold, but now they do make it through. Part of the vanessid family, they have a shiny blue patch at the edge of the hind wing. From 2025 @savebutterflies.bsky.social

#TitliTuesday Butterfly sightings further down the UK, and a dryer, sunnier week forecast from now here in #Lancashire, will a peacock be my 1st of 2026? This beauty from 26th September 2025. #butterflies @savebutterflies.bsky.social #vitaminN

#TitliTuesday Blessed to have a green hairstreak land on me in 2022, delighted that the same thing happened in 2024! I put it down to using the Source Lavender & tea tree oil shower gel! Or sweaty hands ๐Ÿคญ #Lancashire @savebutterflies.bsky.social

#TitliTuesday with one of my favourite photos of an orange tip #butterfly I took in April 2022. Shame he is enjoying spanish rather than native bluebells, but a lovely contrast with his glorious orange tips. Lovely seeing the camouflage underwing too. @savebutterflies.bsky.social #Lancashire
