Beautiful spring day with lots of butterfly action. Today I saw Eight different species: Speckled Wood, Peacock, Tortoiseshell, Large White, A 'Blue', sadly I was not close enough to confirm which type. Brimstone, Orange tip and Painted Lady. We also had a number of Sedge flies by the pond; our pendulous sedge plants had sedge flies!
AKA - (Six acres and not a clue!) My personal diary of the comings and goings of wildlife during the development of my little piece of England. '...There shall be in that rich earth a richer dust concealed; A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware, Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam; A body of England’s, breathing English air, Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.' (R. Brooke)
