The last few weeks have seen summer take hold. Dungeness is looking brown again and the flowers are going over. The emphasis lately has been on moths and butterflies with numbers in my trap nearly reaching a hundred on a couple of nights. I have had a couple of new species for the trap, which is nice and it's been interesting looking back to see the differences over the last 20+ years.
The grassland butterfly numbers have been good round the obs with hundreds of Meadow Browns, Gatekeepers and Common Blues with growing numbers of Marbled Whites, including this odd looking one.
