Not able to do much at the moment due to ongoing treatment at hospital, but last week could not resist the challenge when we heard that the Marsh Fritiltaries and Dingy Skippers had been seen locally. Was very surprised that they were there as it has been so cold and very few other butterflies have been seen consistently.
1. Marsh Fritillary
2. Marsh Fritillary (second visit)
3. Dingy Skipper
It never ceases to amaze me that these two very different looking species appear always at about the same time in the same place. The Marsh Fritillary is one of our most colourful butterflies, while the "Dingy Skipper" really does live up to its name. The place where the images were taken is Scrubbs Meadow at Chambers Farm Wood near Wragby in Lincolnshire.
Despite the effort, which was very tiring, I felt that it was worthwile - hope you agree.
