The birds seem to have gone quiet at this time of year, but the Butterflies are out and about when the weather is calm and warm enough!
We've had a few outings to local areas in the past weeks and have found plenty Ringlets (shown here) and small numbers of quite a few species such as Red Admirals, Small Tortoishell, Common Blue, Meadow Brown, Green-viened White and most recently a Dark Green Fritillary.
Peacocks are now at the caterpillar stage as we came across some nettle patches full of the black caterpillars, so it won't be long till they are turning into butterflies.
