Butterflies

It was slightly warmer than yesterday and it felt good for butterflies.  We wanted a walk and so a trip to Aldbury Nowers and Ivinghoe was an obvious choice to catch up with some of the local specialities. It was cracking - a total of three Duke of Burgundy  were seen with three   Grizzled Skipper  and plenty of   Dingy Skipper .  The supporting cast included, one   Red Admiral , one   Peacock , two   Small-Tortoiseshell , three   Speckled Wood ,   Small  and   Large White , a   Comma , two   Common Blue , five   Brimstone , eight   Orange-Tip , and two Small Heath .
