You have a very plant and insects rich garden, who is the gardener, your wife, you, both?

Keith Burton replied to Xata:

Thank you Isabel............that's probably because it's a bit of a jungle :-)))

My wife is the gardener............I just get called upon to do stuff involving brute force and ignorance...........and to take photos of course..!!

Excellently captured! It looks more like a leaf than brimstone!

Keith Burton replied to Eunice Perkins:

Thanks Eunice..............glad you like it..........and yes, it's cleverly camouflaged as a leaf, especially as it nearly always hangs upside down.
