Luckily i had the camera outside when i spotted this on my Alliums....It's a small copper, we have never seen one of these in the garden before, hopefully it means my plants for bee's and butterflies are having an effect

This is not such a good one of the butterfly but the bee is sooo fluffy

And it give a good indication of how weeny the butterfly is.
