Peaceful Bokeh Wednesday

This magnificent flambé had the courtesy to come and forage on our lavenders last week, in fact they were 2 but the other one had lost one of its tails, this one is intact for the moment, I hope they will come again.

With a maximum wingspan of 8 cm, the flambé is a cream-colored butterfly with large black stripes. Its tails are black and the tips of its hind wings have blue lunules and red spots. It lives in plains and orchards up to 2000 m between May and August.

Thanks a lot dear friends for your visits, kind comments, awards, invites, and faves.

Wish you all a nice week❤️

Nature is conquering back its space with plants that are rampantly overgrowing the modern age. In the background you can see a third bicycle which is almost covered by plants.

A special time of day, when you get some beautiful light as the sun rises illuminating the wet sand at Bamburgh Castle, Northumberland.
