The storm over the the past couple of days probably means this is nearly the end of the season for most of our insects. Earlier in the week the butterflies were making the most of some October sunshine, fuelling up on rotten apples before going into winter hibernation. I saw up to 20 red admirals and just a few commas.

It hasn't been a great year for apples, with quite a lot of fallers but at least the butterflies and wasps have benefitted.
