Doing a transect between rain showers isn't ideal!!. Lucky to disturb this fresh Small Heath at Newton Cutting ,especially in this section,there's been a few recorded here this year for the 1st time so worth the effort just for that record. BC Warwickshire UKBMS Live Data

..the 2nd #butterfly seen was a favourite. Small Copper that vanished so I went to look for it after the walk. Surveying Ragwort flowers for 1/2 an hour it appeared again out of nowhere as they do.A real treat at this time of year making an unpromising visit special. UKBMS Live Data
