Silver-washed Frit

Mainly sunny with some cloud, 25°, breezy WSW.

Fairly quiet out there today with lots of butterflies around and this afternoon Alan found a Silver-washed Fritillary at Bow Bridge.

The 2 Common Redstart still present on the hill and a family group of Common Whitethroat and a couple of Chiffchaff.

The Little Owl seen briefly and a couple of Kestrel around. Apart from the usual species not much else to note.

Mammals: Brown Hare.

Dragonflies: Banded Demoiselle, Emperor and a small unidentified Hawker that may have been a Migrant Hawker.

Butterflies: Small Skipper, Brimstone, Large White, Small White, Common Blue, Holly Blue, Red Admiral, Small Tortoiseshell, Peacock, Comma, Speckled Wood, Marbled White, Gatekeeper, Meadow Brown, Ringlet and Small Heath.
