No it's deffo a last year picture I'm glad it was useful to you, but can't understand why the name isn't explained on Google. You know what to look for now though. The butterfly conservation website I mentioned above is a good place for getting information

Saw loads of Peacocks today, but they wouldn't stay still enough for me to get decent close-up pictures

Great pics everyone, there have been a good lot of them in my garden recently too. I saw a couple basking in the intermittent sunshine on the Rudbeckia.
