Had a few caterpillars this year, but a late one popped up on the blueberry bush chomping its way towards changing.

Some of last years pics I completely forgot about coming up, hoping this year is as good once it gets going.

A few have stopped by for the buddleia, and I got a few decent pics.

A real treat to see one of these in my garden, a few times in one day, and actually saw one again this morning. The buddleia is doing a very good job this year, catering for plenty of bees, butterflies, moth, hoverflies, beetles and various other small insects. Got a few good pics and fottage of it flying around, but they aren’t easy!

A surprise find in the garden, hiding in a curled up dying petal.

This is a first for me seeing an elderberry Pearl moth. It was hiding amongst the rose leaves and luckily settled again for a few moments while I got a few shots.
