A Butterfly in the Dahlias

Once rare, the Comma butterfly has become the ultimate success story with its population dramatically increasing in the last 40 years. Warmer temperatures means this ornate orange and brown beauty, with its ragged, patterned wings, is thriving in the UK. In late summer, whilst the Dahlias are still blooming, Comma butterflies love to bask in the sunshine. Against a rich teal background, this vibrant colour story celebrates the salad days of Summer.
