Spent a few hours in the garden in yesterday's lovely sunshine and was surprised to see two Red Admirals flitting around.

I found it:
In mild winters, Red Admirals can sometimes be found overwintering in the south and west of England. On cold days they rest, emerging on warm sunny days to feed and drink - unless they can do so at regular intervals they do not survive here.

I often find Red Admirals overwintering in the house. - usually around the windows or in a corner of a room near the ceiling. Must have a look around and see if I can spot any this year.Comment
