Two photos from Donald sent in tellings us:

We went to Kingston Lacy today, 11/11/2023 to see some trees changing colour and saw four Red Admirals. Two were in the kitchen garden feeding on the flowers and two in the house grounds. I managed to get a few photos of one feeding on a Salvia and the second one of those shows how long their proboscis is.
