I carried out this week's butterfly transect on Ashtead Common North around midday on Tuesday but with the temperature hovering just above 12 deg C I logged just five species; Speckled Wood (3), Small White (1), Large White (1), Peacock (1) and a solitary Brimstone nectaring on a Bluebell.
With more wild flowers appearing and the temperature expected to improve I will hopefully come across some different flutters during my wanderings over the coming days. FAB.

Beautiful picture, and some great sightings. We have had it hot in here. + 20 ° C and the sun sooner. Here, in our locality float away lady butterflies, butterflies lemon, green nimble wings, The Comma, and Small tortoiseshell. Moths are waiting very hard. Happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteIt is FREEZING here today, Frank! Windy and cool so I haven't seen anything floating by...except the Eagle, of course!...:)JP
ReplyDeleteI love the yellow butterflie. In our country it's a citroentje.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shot, Frank. The blue and yellow complement each other well.
