It's the same in all areas I guess, just at the right place at the right time. As I mentioned I saw hundreds of butterflies, most of which never stopped to be photographed, so who knows what else I missed!Roger Gibbons wrote:An interesting collection of shots in that nearly all are common species plus…. Little Fritillary (M. asteria) – and a female?? – a rare and localised species. It is a very small butterfly (it doesn’t occur in France and I have never seen it, I may add) and this would have been apparent in the field. A friend of mine just drove several hundred miles and spent several days looking for this without success. This seems to have been a theme this year by several people – trips looking for specific rare species failed dismally whereas trips made by less experienced people (not looking for anything in particular) turned up the rare species. This is half the fun of butterflies in Europe, the sometimes completely random element.
