Small Tortoiseshells, Aglais urticae male behind female |
My first visit today was
to Cissbury Ring where I had many male Brimstone sightings plus a courting
pair, plus a Peacock. On the way to Ferring Rife I saw more male Brimstones.
The rife was alive with Small Tortoiseshells and I witnessed many pairs flying,
a couple of trebles and one foursome. There was much courting occurring on the
ground. I estimate that I saw over 40 Small Tortoiseshells plus two Peacocks.
