Apollo in the Pyrenees

By livinglevels  
Apollo butterfly nectaring on Buddleia at about 1000m altitude in the Pyrenees last summer, near Orus. A butterfly that I have always wanted to see, only to have a couple visit the holiday cottage every day, to feed in the garden!

A big thanks to Baldrick, Alan Baseley, Robert Turley and "big mc" for their valued UA's for my "Red Arrows - Up Close" image.
