Sunshine in the Cemetery

 It's pouring down just now, but at the weekend it was beautifully sunny and we had a lovely walk round North Merchiston Cemetery. This is one of the garden cemeteries of Edinburgh, which is no longer used for burials (unless you already have a family plot) and is mostly managed for wildlife. 

We were pleased to see several butterflies, including this Speckled Wood  

and this moth, which I  think is a Cream Wave Moth, though please correct me if I'm wrong, there are several similar looking species
