A group of us visited Twywell Hills on Saturday after starting the day at Paxton Pits looking for Nightingale of which we had good views. we were hoping for Grizzled Skipper and good numbers of Green Hairstreak at Twywell, but we only saw a single Green Hairstreak. We covered the area known as 'The Gullet' mainly but also skirted the edge of 'The Woodland'. We didn't really cover 'Waterstones'. Were we in the wrong area or are they just not on the wing yet. We also visited Monk's Wood in Cambs. hoping for Grizzled Skipper and Wall, but again only saw Speckled Wood, Peacock, Orange-tip and Brimstone.
