Yesterday’s walk around Cardiff Bay didn’t only bring nice birds, it also produced my second butterfly species for the year, a Small tortoiseshell. Unfortunately, the wind blew it away so quickly, twice, that I didn’t manage a photo. But I did get a couple of shots of today’s third species, this lovely Peacock. And I also saw number four, my first Brimstone, a male that was so intent on flying back and forth along the footpath trying to find a female that I only got a blurry shot of it. In these troubled times, it makes my heart sing to see the butterflies emerging again.
81/366 Number 3!

Nature does give you a lift, I took a walk yesterday by the Taff in Taffs Well and saw four male Goosanders together, never seen that many together before.

I do hope so, though I’m less hopeful having seen the idiot people out and about today, not practising social distancing, behaving as if nothing was happening.
