Three Counties


A great day out in Wiltshire & Hampshire it was just West Sussex that let the side down with no Selsey Serin, a surprise really as I thought it might show, but never mind; it was nice to see the Stoke's Bay contingent there just a shame the bird didn't show.

 So in Witshire at Cotlley Hill:

Marsh Fritillary:








Grizzled Skipper:




Orange Tip:



At Mark Ash Wood in the New Forest, Hampshire, two Wood Warblers found on call were high in the canopy. Beautiful birds, less beautiful shot but as I was shooting blind into the light I thought it was OK!
