This is a response to Shazz's photo http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1398845. It is the same species of butterfly - a Painted Lady - but is instead taken from my nan's garden on Woodford Court in Birchington. My nan's garden stones make quite an effective, rural-looking background. Picture taken looking north-northwest towards the sea.
