I have been living here for 13 years and first time ever I saw (in this area) a Male Orange tip! No pic, flew too fast. I was watching area and saw a small white looking butterfly and thought, "that is not a small white" and went in for a closer look and saw it! Great
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
Also saw:
2 pairs of Small Tortoiseshell courting
2 Small Tortoiseshell
3 Small White
2 Large White
2 Peacock butteflies
and for the fist time ever I seen one, a Male common blue! That was someting. Also, no shot. Going back tomorrow is weathers great and staying for 3-4 hours and I am going to catch male orange tip, photo it and let it go. Better plan that a wild shot. I won't sit still!
Best numbers I saw ever!, Last summer I saw over 80 Silver Y and 10+ Clouded yellow. This is a good place. I will keep going back. Also there are loads of Cinnibar around too and loads of White Ermine (I sucessfully bread 80 to adult last year.)
Here is Peacock. I was right on top of it when shot was taken, using tripod!
