Butterfly update

It was looking like a very poor year for butterflies until the last week or so. Still not as wide a variety of species as previous years but at last the sunny weather has brought out the numbers and also many of the species. Recorded recently have been the Marbled White which is flying in good numbers, loads of Meadow Browns and Ringlets and some sightings of the Large Skipper and also one Comma today. The photo is a Marbled White resting.
