British Butterflies

[jakep]

I am a beginner bird watcher and am really enjoying my new interest. I am seeing more butterflies while out and about.
Can anyone recommend a good, small butterfly id book please.

I've always found this one pretty good.

I bought one of these a while back

Just the thing and pretty cheap.

Got it from my local garden centre, btw.

Thank you jomifl and Frank. At those prices, I will probably get both.

jakep, did you not collect the British Butterflies picture cards from the tea packets, when you were young?
