A look at what has been happening to the Indian men's #cricket team in a series of #T20Is in first #Ireland and then #England plus a #photo gallery that is effectively a highlights package of the last month or so since I returned from holiday.

It's been a bit of a rollercoaster this week. A moment of joy today when I saw a butterfly in the garden today that I've not seen for years. This is a Painted Lady. The lavender has been exceptionally stunning this year too, there's so many different wonderful insects visiting it.
Not the best photo since it didn't like me getting that close.

You might see plenty of orange painted lady butterflies around Britain this year since it's the biggest migration in 17 years. #paintedlady

A #PaintedLady came to visit yesterday (Vanessa cardui, #Distelfalter) - shot from a looong distance with maximum optical and some digital zoom. Hadn't known this #butterfly species but https://www.hr4.de/programm/themen/portraets-von-12-heimischen-schmetterlingsarten-v2,zwoelf-einheimische-schmetterlingsarten-100.html readily identified it.

The extraordinary burst of Painted Lady activity repeated yesterday evening. Within a few minutes I counted nine.
One had found this Amsonia (a US prairie native) but most were mobbing the Phuopsis. The valerian clumps were in shade.
