This Monarch Butterfly - also known as a Wanderer - lives in the Butterfly House at Melbourne Zoo in Victoria, Australia. They spend all day fluttering around in the heat and humidity - so a rest is required from time to time!

The Small Tortoiseshell is among the most well-known butterflies in the UK. The striking and attractive patterning and its appearance at almost any time of the year in urban areas have made it a familiar species. It is one of the first butterflies to be seen in spring and in the autumn it often visits garden flowers in large numbers. This example was spotted basking in July sunshine near Blyth in Northumberland, North East England.
