I must admit I find it hard to understand the British obsession with these migrants. One day a butterfly's flitting around the dunes outside Calais and nobody has the slightest interest in it. The next day it's crossed the channel to Dover and it suddenly becomes very exciting and valuable. Why? It's still the same specimen! Bob I believe it is because we have so few butterflies, if you collect the British set, its another one to add. ( hopefully the rarer resident species will be added today from historical material ). Then those that do not collect will be hoping the rare migrant's offspring will be here to stay. Not this one though, it hates our damp cold dark British winters and so do I.
