December Days in Photos, Day 12: Butterfly and Dahlia

redsixwing asked for a bug photo or a combination bug/selfie photo. I couldn't find one of the latter in the archives, and it's cold/wet/horrible outside today so I'm choosing instead one that I took at the height of summer. We were visiting the bloke's parents in Norfolk, and up by their swimming pool they have a spectacular collection of roses and dahlias which were all in full bloom and laden with butterflies. Its bright colours cheered me up on this dull grey December day.
