Bystock


Ringlet.

A very pleasant couple hours spent in Bystock DWT reserve this afternoon. Plenty of butterflies seen including several Ringlet and Marbled White alongside Small Skippers and a Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary. I also spent some time looking at the numerous Common Spotted Orchids that are quite widely distributed across the meadow.


Small Skipper.













Good to find five Broad-leaved Helleborines along Wright's Lane following last years disastrous showing. Another week or two before they flower I should think.
