My goal this Easter Sunday was to capture an image of a butterfly in flight. When Jan spoke with our daughter back in the UK think she conjured up an image of a doddering 70 year old with a butterfly net. Happy Easter all.

Subalpine Warbler. With the lockdown we’ve been following the progress of the newly arrived bird life, such as this female Warbler, up at the crack of dawn searching for breakfast.
