| | | Upside-down butterfly help Hi
I need some help please.
Sitting in my garden in the Limousin last night I saw an upside-down butterfly on my buddleia tree. It was large, white with black stripes and long antennae at the wrong end. Doas anyone know what it is. I have not seen another in the 6 years i've been here.   |

Now I see the Limousin is in France, for some reason on the other thread I imagined you were sitting in a limousine!
