Thanks Wurzel, I think from now on , Straight and Crooked , a bit like me I should remember that Goldie

Fantastic David, keep them coming Goldie

Hi! Wurzel, you've had some cracking shots lately, those Marshie shots are great Goldie

Hi! Wurzel just seen your post :D Has you can see I went back to EBW today , like you said I've got a bucket full of Heath now :lol: I got another Skipper today I wondered if that could be an Essex Skipper as well, it seems to have what you said in your description , I'm useless on Skippers :oops: I...

I went to Castle Gardens today but no luck with the Butterflies, I saw only one White so I decided to go back to East Blean Woods and see if I could see a White Admiral. No Luck there. I parked lower down this time and concentrated on being just inside the wood near the road ( less lonely) the Heath...

Thanks for that essex, I can never tell the difference I know their antenna is Black but usually I know of no other features I think I'll nip to the park today it's near the sea and maybe a bit cooler for the Butterflies Goldie

Love the White Admiral shots Neil I've seen them but they wouldn't pose for shots Goldie

Fantastic Purple Emperor Trevor, belting colour photos Goldie

Hi! Wurzel, thanks for your post, Hopefully I may get more shots of the Heath if I go back to Blean Woods, I'm torned between the village Blean and East Blean now :D they've still left East Blean in a mess from the logging but it looks like it was good for the Heath, Village Blean is more for dog wa...

Today I went to Monkton NR and called at East Blean Woods on the way back, I was looking for the Marbled White at Monkton and I'm pleased to say I found them, it was really hot but I'd gone there soon so I could get some relief from coolness in the woods later. They were flying all over the meadow a...

Just got back from Blean Woods Village NR where I saw lots of White Admirals none stopped for any shots though and what I thought was an Admiral from a distance turned out to be a Ringlet :roll: At least I know where they are for next time :D I did see another Heath Fritillary and managed a shot of ...

Your seeing lots of Butterflies Wurzel great shots of the Marshies we don't seem to get those round here, I'll have to exchange shots with you, Heath, for Marshies Goldie

Every things late here Neil, I've only seen one moth so far this year , a Silver Y, hopefully like you say things may get a move on with this weatherGoldie

WoW! is all I can say David, I lived in Canada for two years in Alberta ( my Husband was working there) and never saw a Bear
Has for the Butterflies , what a great holiday.Goldie

Lovely shots of the Marbled White Dave and the Skippers, I've yet to see the MW's or the Skipper's hope fully soon , things are defiantly slower here this year Goldie

Hi! Wurzel, I went to Monkton NR again to see if the Marbled White were out but no luck yet I did see lots of Orchids and the Small Heath were there hopping from one Daisy to another :D I rang Monkton before I went yesterday because it was so hot here and they said the MW's were still not out yet bu...

Hi! Katrina, I've just looked at your posts ( although it's past bed time ) and you've got a shot there that could win any competition the one with the the SSB flying , fantastic shot Goldie

I went to Blean Village today and into Blean Woods ( not East Blean Woods ) the Heath Fritillary were there but in much smaller numbers, the Meadow Brown and Ringlets were also there but because of the Heat were mostly in the bushes, I thought at first nothing was there because nothing was flying li...

Hi! Trevor, I couldn't miss going after seeing your lovely shots :D You put me to shame :D I didn't think they'd be out so soon with the weather like it's been, I'll go back there again , want to see if the Purple Hair Streak is there, they love the oak trees in the car park and start coming down th...

Hi! Wurzel, I'm having trouble posting not sure why it's just when I try to post my shots, I'm hoping this post will get through, I'll just try once more. Shots from Blean wood yesterday, looking forward to seeing more Jaunt adventures David :D It's actually posted too many now and I can't seem to d...
