Butterflies in May 2021 - shooting in the rain and restrictions

There has been a slight drop in butterflies photos due to the lack of opportunities to photograph them out there. Most of the photos in May were taken at a nearby park, along the road side as well as at the edge of a nearby forest. Hence most of them were common ones mix with a couple of 'returning' old ones.
