When we were on holiday in Cornwall we saw lots of Speckled woods, most of them looked to be more chestnut in colour than the ones up here in Yorkshire which are more brown, any thoughts anyone.
thanks

I took these two pictures at the Carnon Vally nature reserve near Truro in Cornwall earlier this month whilst on holiday, are they clouded yellow?





Fairly sure they are, but not having seen any before would like your opinion.

Thanks Judi

Thank-you

I think that this is a Common Blue but not completely sure, please can anyone help?

I have a small garden on the outskirts of a small town in East Yorkshire, this year I have had dozens of Peacocks, a Comma and a couple of small tortoiseshells, the odd one for me is the Holly Blue it flew around the garden then left without landing

Hi Matsukaze,

Thanks very much for your reply, I have made notes of the sites that you suggest, St Ives is a favourite place so will definitely be looking there, we have very little variety of species around where i live so would love to get a few more
