How many people have been fortunate enough to see the Swallowtail in the wild in the UK? They are quite rare and mainly confined to the Norfolk Broads area.

Thank you Phil, it is a set I liked. It was a lovely varied day out. Swallowtail butterflies, Bee Orchids and I think a Reed Warbler although I'd love some of our birder contributors to confirm or correct me. Nice and bright to on the whole.
