Stopped by the bird table for a couple of quick photos before it began to pour!
Looking forward to warmer, sunny weather for some more butterflies.

Bluebells, butterflies and birds
Sunshine and showers today, this morning I drove over to some local woods to see the bluebells , after lunch I called at Stanton Park and walked across the meadow, a Brimstone butterfly fluttered by but didn't settle, but an orange-tip was more obliging. A quick photo showing its wings open, but then it closed them completely, and wouldn't open them again, as by then it had clouded over and was about to rain.
