Another Silver-washed Fritillary today, again a new location in Barming (Oaken) Woods, but no doubt one or the same individual that I've been seeing over the last few days. Again it wouldn't settle for more than a few seconds and was continually harassed by Gatekeepers, hence the 'shaky' images. No sign of any Purple Hairstreaks today - no wonder I've missed them in previous years. Lots of Common Blues and a single Brown Argus.



The clouds were doing funny things!


Lots of dragonflies including; Southern Hawker, Migrant Hawker and Common Darter.
