Buttercup Meadow

I've been calling in at a meadow looking for birds on my way to work recently and couldn't fail to notice the great expanse of buttercups. On warmer mornings, I also noticed the odd butterfly dancing in the wind so on Saturday afternoon, in the glorious sunshine, I took Debbie for a visit to see if we could find some.

We didn't do too bad, certainly more butterflies here than we've seen anywhere else so far this year and one or two of them actually stopped still for longer than a split second!

Given it's close proximity, I'm sure we'll be dropping in again on a sunny afternoon to see if something else turns up.
