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.

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.
