Postcard from the field from tour leader @selbypaul.bsky.social in the Italian Alps:
While the good butterflies kept on coming today, there were plenty of further distractions to be had for our guests, not least in the form of immense Trumpet Gentians bluer than even the sky overhead. Bliss!
Mariposa Nature Tours
Day 4 of the @mariposanature.bsky.social holiday to the Italian Alps was spent mostly at higher altitude. The views and alpine botany stole the show, albeit Mountain Green Veined White was a nice addition the butterfly species list, which has now topped 100 species after just 4 days.
