Due to a slight mix up with church times, I missed out on my Sunday morning trip to Sutton Bingham and instead Ellie and I drove out to Alners Gorse as it was such a lovely morning. We arrived at about 11.15am and spent an hour on site and were lucky enough to see four or so Brown Hairstreaks, and they were really smashing butterflies, and the views we had today more than made up for missing them earlier in the week.
We also saw a couple of Purple Hairstreaks and Silver-washed Fritillaries and a Holly Blue was also on the wing. Several other species of butterfly were also seen during our visit, in fact we saw over ten different species in just an hour.
