Pupation!
Photographed this evening (Fri 20th May) in a garden in the Strong country (Heslop's phrase) - Looks male to me... Even if he spends 3 weeks as a pupa he's going to emerge in mid June... Meanwhile the others are not far behind - These guys are well synchronised with their wild Wiltshire cousins... The race is on to smash the all-time record for the earliest UK Purple Emperor, only a foul June can stop us... Follow me on Twitter at
