It seems to me that butterfly numbers have been way down over the last 
few weeks, during that prolonged dry spell.

However, with a couple of decent rains, we're starting to see a few 
butterflies flying again. In particular, my neighbours' Buddleia had 
three Red Admirals on it this morning, and the lowly Cabbage White has 
become more common, too.

Anybody else feel that this has not been a great summer for butterflies?
