Buttterflies in the garden today: two large white, one gatekeeper or hedge brown, and one that I took to be a speckled wood. The last two both settled on the bamboo at the end of the garden long enough for me to look at them properly. And one enormous, beautiful dragonfly: of course, I don’t know what that was. The picture above is of a painted lady taken on the canal towpath at Woking last month.
