Went out yesterday with a mate and we went to Berkeley Castle and had a great time, and never for wet, bonus, https://www.Berkeley-castle.com/ Well worth a visit The butterflies are stunning, The large on in the second pictures is an Atlas moth and its huge.

Hi Lillian, that looks an amazing place to visit, the sculptures are amazing. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #10 X
ReplyDeleteGreat pics. I've had enough of the rain now lol. Helen #9
ReplyDeleteI like the sculptures but not so much the moth as we have had an infestation of them which has been a nightmare. Fingers crossed we have got them out now.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed your day out.

ReplyDeleteLovely post, Lillian. Great photos, especially the one of the moth. It's a shame we can't turn the rain off and on as and when needed. Beautiful card. Have a good week. Elizabeth x #26

ReplyDeleteI've never visited that castle but it certainly looks well worth a visit Lilian. I'm fed up with the rain now too! Happy WOYWW. Sarah #7
ReplyDeleteHello Lillian,
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are awesome! That Atlas moth is really something! Your Christmas card really is very nice too, however it doesn't seem to fit our Tag It challenge at Christmas With The Cuties. There is still time to get a tag made though, so I hope you will consider doing so! Thanks for joining us! :)
