The most pleasing part of the encounter was being completely alone in its company David

The awful impact to the local population aside , how do you think this will affect next season’s butterfly numbers. Are they resilient to these natural disasters or will it take some time to recover.

Thanks David.
Upper side thanks to Guys suggestion of using the video on my camera and taking a screenshot of the butterfly taking off.

Had this Helice at Rainham Marshes yesterday. My first Clouded Yellow this autumn there so rather fortunate

Thanks Paul

Do you have contact details for your guide. Off to a nearby area in Austria this weekend

Following on from this I was lucky enough to find this in Epping Forest on 3rd July
