Easing myself back into the patch by sitting in the garden this afternoon. The buddleia has flowered in our absence, and attracted a Red Admiral today.

Two new butterflies for the year were a Ringlet and a Meadow Brown. Meanwhile a Robin was collecting food on our patio, and clearly is feeding young nearby. It was very relaxed about our proximity, even stopping to sun itself for a while.
Much trickier was a bee, which I think was a Willughby's Leaf-cutter Bee. We have had them nesting in a bee-house in the garden in previous years, but not at the moment.

This evening a familiar moth flew into the bathroom, the first Riband Wave of the year.
