    Project 52: Week 21, I visited an RSPB reserve but ..

    ... the only things with wings that I could photograph were butterflies!


    The first is a Peacock, shot with the birding Tamron 150-600mm

    Next is a small white that kindly posed for me after I had switched to the Tamron 90mm macro

    However, the Orange Tips, which were present in abundance and the stars of the butterfly displays were not so obliging, and it was a case of shoot quickly and hope as they flitted from one place to another. This isn't one of my better butterfly shots but was the best I could do

    There was one other obliging non-avian winged creature that I caught on the way back to the car

    Nice captures, at least there were objects to photograph.

    Always tricky all those whites... which came out nicely. The hoverfly is my favourite.
