Popped down the cycletrack to ogle the gorgeous Silver-washed Fritillaries nectaring on trackside brambles and a large Buddleia. I first saw them here last year, so it was great to see them again and in good numbers too. We counted at least ten, including a stunning pinky-brown Valezina form female, something I had not seen before. Also, stacks of other butterflies nectaring and a bonus Hummingbird Hawkmoth!
