Back to Barnes

An hour at the Barnes Lane, Clouded Yellow site. I decided to return to Barnes Lane for another look at the Clouded Yellows. Samuel P had seen Purple Hairstreak here yesterday so that was an added incentive. I met Samuel on site and we counted 13+ Clouded Yellow before scanning the tops of some Oaks on the edge of the wood. No luck with the Purple Hairstreaks too early in the day probably. Other butterflies; Meadow Brown, Speckled Wood, Small Copper, Common Blue. Silver Y Moth.
Some pics to my usual standard below.
