| Grizzled Skipper, Pyrgus malvae |
Yesterday morning we visited Arundel WWT where we had lunch and I took some videos. Click to a title view:
In the afternoon I visited Rewell Wood and found 3 fresh Grizzled
Skippers and two in one area were continually meeting and fighting. The Wood Spurge
was home to dozens of Small Purple and Gold micromoths and Hairy Shieldbugs. Other
butterflies seen: Green-veined Whites, Orange-tip, Peacocks,
Brimstones, Speckled Wood. I found my second Speckled Yellow moth of the year. On
my way home I stopped at Lobbs Wood and found three of the local population of Speckled
Woods.
