UK Butterflies

In the cool misty weather in my part of West Yorkshire, nothing!

What have UK people been seeing this week so far in the mini heat wave?
Since Saturday i have recorded 51 Brimstone and 1 Comma in Hampshire.
Most around my place of work SW of Winchester. To me this is high but i
have only been recording Butterfly numbers for 2 years (3rd spring). But
i have not seen any Small Tortoiseshell or Peacock but i know people who
have. Their emergence may just be patchy.
