I visited Marlesham Wilds in Suffolk this afternoon, which was a new site for me, hoping to see a Queen of Spain Fritillary butterfly.
It took me a good hour to connect with the butterfly, but I was rewarded with stunning views as it flew in front of me and landed. Whatever its origins, it is a beautiful butterfly, and I'm glad I saw it.
