Une belle série de photos . Si les fleurs ont rattrapé leur retard, je trouve que les papillons sont peu nombreux dans la zone que j'observe régulièrement.

Lucie: These are from 2 years ago in fact. This year butterfly numbers are even more seriously down than last year it seems to me. I haven't done my May survey to compare yet though.
