Like a chocolate box

A period away from the garden camping and technical issues with the travel trap has left little time to either trap or update the site. Yesterday was a full chance to change that and with the warm temps at the moment I was looking forward to what we would find.
It was encouraging as whilst these beauties are classed as common I still look upon them as gems.
