Our Second Lesnes' Butterfly Transect Walk

We only went the wrong way once this time: and it didn't involve going up an additional Hill.

Butterflies seen:

two Brimstone Butterflies
two Comma Butterflies
two Holly Blue Butterflies
two Orange-Tip Butterflies
one Peacock Butterfly viz.


one Small White Butterfly
eight Speckled Wood Butterflies
and fourteen Unidentified white Butterflies (as mentioned previously, we can't really take the Net with us: at least as things stand at present)

Wild Flowers seen included: BluebellsBush Vetch, Garlic Mustard, Germander SpeedwellGreater StitchwortGround-IvyLesser CelandineLords-and-Ladies, Wild GarlicWood AnemoneWood Sorrel and Yellow Archangel viz.


Plus five more Bee-Fly Records:


We were actually more interested in finding Bee-Flies than Butterflies!

Footnote: after all the Steep Hills, it would be nice not to have to walk Home!
