The seven cygnets are still growing every day and both parents are doing a brilliant job of showing them the right feeding grounds.

Small Tortoiseshell chrysalis

Recently we noticed a chrysalis and every now and again we photo it to see if it has changed.
Below is an image showing a colour change from a pale colour to the darker form of the Butterfly which is to emerge from it. 




In the next week this chrysalis will turn into a beautiful Small Tortoiseshell Butterfly.
