What a brilliant day it was - in more ways than one! Sun beaming down, butterflies and moths a plenty and it was very good to have walk round the reserve with such knowledgable people. It’s a shame my photography didn’t seem to be up to scratch today with camera blur evident on my pictures, unlike the clever young lad who was there doing macro and giving a running commentary about various aspects of Lepidoptera behaviour - move over Mr Attenborough!
All in all an amazing day out and thank you to Andy C for his expertise.
tHIS IS A MESSAGE FOR Elliot..the fine young butterfly spotter..the place to see Brown Hairstreak is Chambers Farm Wood in Lincolnshire a fine place for many butterfly species
