All images of butterflies or moths have been removed, but most can be found in the Photo House December 2006 Thursday 28th December When you think it is all over for sightings of butterflies this year, it isn't! On the way to Kew Gardens for the ice skating today the 28th December on the Chiswick roundabout, I spotted a Red Admiral flying past. Then while waiting for the children to get their boots on at the ice rink another Red Admiral flew past, probably disturbed from it's hibernation from the massive influx of people, or the fact it was a very warm day for this time of year? If this is the result of global warming, well it's not all bad!! Helen George My father told me that he saw a butterfly in Bronte Paths, Stevenage this morning. I assume it was a Red Admiral (just hope it wasnt a wind blown leaf!. It was very warm today, with lots of insects and one or two bees in my garden but despite all my attention no butterflies appeared - Phil Bishop Tuesday 26th December I enjoyed today even more with a totally unexpected Red Admiral flying along the eaves of my house and then the neighbours, at about 10.45 this am - weather was grey, dull and 5C.
