Late summer insects basking at Trentham Gardens

As always, there was lots to see at Trentham Gardens, near Stoke on Trent, where a completely new grand garden has been created by the lake in the last few years. I find it an interesting mix of traditional and modern garden design.

 
A Comma butterfly, whose numbers thankfully are buoyant since its larvae feed on nettles; for some reason, they were attracted to this statue.
