Don't know, but I haven't seen too many fullstops yet!

Saw a tortoiseshell sunning itself day before yesterday. Chased it off
before the cats made a snack of it.

No. It is about right. A friend of mine saw one last week. Commas,
like small tortoiseshells, to which they are closely related,
hibernate as adults. Consequently it is possible to see them even on
warm winter days. About now is when the adult hibernating butteflies
emerge anyway.

The sunshine does seem to have brought them out. We had a Tortoiseshell, a
Peacock and a Brimstone all fluttering round the garden on Sunday.

Talking about early - you seem to be in tomorrow already! ;)

I suppose that means Cabbage Whites won't be far behind - starting the garden war
for another year. Soon be time to get nets over the greens.

Seen "Small Tortoiseshell", "Peacocks" and "Painted Ladies" on the
allotment over the last few days but no male Brimstones yet which is strange
because they are normally first by some days. All were in surprisingly good
condition.

What is a comma? Could it be a spelling (or punctuation) error??

There's been Commas and Tortoiseshells around since about the 17th. (I
haven't seen them in my garden, but I did see them in several other
locations between the 17th and 22nd.

I guess the weather has been warmer than usual, but I'm no butterfly
expert?

Yep. Had what looked like a cabbage white two days ago. Only saw it briefly
before it flew over the fence so can't be sure but can't think of what else
it could be.

People have mentioned my clock in this thread. It reads correct at my
end and other posts have been timed correctly, but thanks for pointing
it out.

Please excuse my ignorance, if I'd seen the tread, I could have worked
that out for myself. Not many butterflies here in S Wales yet, but
wonderfully warm and sunny. The garden is in for a big shock when temps
fall back to normal.
