We've had rain for several days now, and only the odd sunny interval, so today was a treat. And the insects were making the most of it too. I think they're low on reserves after so much rain, and sometimes less likely to take flight, hence the chance to take a close up of this female orange tip butterfly on lady's smock without out it fluttering away.

And I hardly ever get a picture of the deer, so here's a more blurry but still notable pic!
