Hooray I found Butterflies in Norfolk!
Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2008 6:44 pm
I was going to spend my day off on The Broads with the hope of spotting Swallowtails but decided to defer that as the weather was quite breezy & cloudy.
I then decided to go to Buxton Heath , a local site for Silver Spotted Blues. No luck with those but got one Skipper & lots of Dragonflies.
I then returned home & collected the dog for our afternoon walk. At about 3pm suddenly the sun started to shine
During the next half an hour I saw more butterflies than in the previous month.....
4 Small tortoiseshell
3 Small Heath
1 Large White
1 unidentified Skipper
Lots of Speckled Wood
1 very tatty looking Painted Lady.
Now off to say prayers for Sunshine tomorrow.
