I see from the Bird observatory sightings that there have been quite a lot of Large Tortoiseshell sightings on Portland in the last few days does anyone have any further details? Particularly a sighting of 4 somewhere on Portland
Thanks

Another probable seen in flight yesterday per the Portland Bird Observatory site.
Other recent Large Tortoiseshell sightings that I've heard of include 3 in Hants, one at Beachy Head and one near Sidmouth. Is this the tip of the iceberg I wonder compared to how many are being seen but not widely reported ?
