Catching some rays
24 July 2006 (311)

Fovant, Salisbury, UK

A Red Admiral, having fun in the late afternoon sun!

Ping to Tim!

----------

It's Save Our Butterflies week in the UK (22-30 July):
particularly relevant, as it's recently been announced that
"Only 56 butterfly species now remain in Britain, as others
have fallen victim to disappearing habitat...".
