| Dingy Skipper, Erynnis tages |
Today seemed a perfect day for a trip to Mill Hill. I parked next to Neil’s car and hurried down the hill knowing that if a Dingy Skipper was around then Neil would have bagged it. I was right! Not only that but he spotted a Green Hairstreak “on a mission”. I was able to locate several more Dingies and saw the little green fella dash past me and settle briefly on a leaf. Joaquim came along and showed me a photo of a Small Heath he had seen. I also saw many Grizzled Skippers, a Speckled Wood, a Green-veined White and a Peacock. Four adders and a green lizard completed a very satisfying afternoon.
