male Brimstone, Gonepteryx rhamni |
On Tuesday I checked out Whiteways
car park and adjacent meadows as a Swallowtail had been reported there the
previous day. I found a wonderful meadow where Hemp Agrimony was covered in
nectaring butterflies and at least two Clouded Yellows had aerial battles every
time their paths crossed. Plenty of Brimstones gave me the opportunity to
obtain more in-flight shots. A visit to Kithurst Hill provided more Clouded Yellows.
