From David Halford
I live in North Herts, between Baldock and
Stevenage, on the edge of a village overlooking fields and woodland. I have
today found a live female Emporer butterfly in my greenhouse. It is now outside,
looking a little bit dazed! I have taken a photo of it for posterity. This is
the first time I have seen such a butterfly since moving here in
1988.
Is this a rare sighting for this part of the
world?
