Description
Red Admiral
A large and strong-flying butterfly, common in gardens and found throughout Britain and Ireland. Brown/black wings with red bands and white spots near the tips of fore wings. Undersides dark and mottled.
Starting each spring and continuing through the summer there are northward migrations, which are variable in extent and timing, from North Africa and continental Europe. The immigrant females lay eggs and consequently there is an emergence of fresh butterflies, from about July onwards. They continue flying into October or November and are typically seen nectaring on garden buddleias or flowering Ivy.
There is an indication that numbers have increased in recent years and that overwintering has occurred in the far south of England.
