Thanks everyone. Goldie, you are seeing more Red Admirals than me at the moment, so don’t loose heart just yet!
Dave, Bugboy, Trevor,I thought it was high time I got a slice of the Mill Hill action, after all your brilliant photos the previous week.!
David, Mill Hill is a brilliant site, both early and late in the season, and that patch of flowers makes it even better!
Wurzel, that PL was a cracking find, as were the Peacocks!
Mill Hill pt2.
After enjoying those wonderful butterflies on the hemp agrimony, I had time to walk elsewhere on site, seeing several other species. Common Blues were indeed, common, and I found a Small Copper. I was also pleased to find a Brown Argus, a most welcome October butterfly.
Several Clouded Yellows were patrolling the slope, as was a Brimstone. I was hoping to find a Meadow Brown, and I saw several.
However, this mating pair was a surprise.
I also saw Small White, lots of worn Walls, Small Heath and Speckled Woods. A super day down there.
