Painted Lady Butterfly Adult Apron

A summery image of a painted lady in a meadow on a warm summers day with a gentle breeze and fluffy blue clouds in the sky. The Painted Lady is a long-distance migrant, which causes the most spectacular butterfly migrations observed in Britain and Ireland. Each year, it spreads northwards from the desert fringes of North Africa, the Middle East, and central Asia, recolonizing mainland Europe and reaching Britain and Ireland. In some years it is an abundant butterfly, frequenting gardens and other flowery places in late summer.migration Ireland
