Duke of Burgundy ♀, Hamearis lucina |
Today I met Mark Colvin at Heyshott and before we started our butterfly walk a Red Kite circled overhead. On the escarpment we saw Duke of Burgundy (males and one female), Brimstones, including one egg laying,
Peacock, Green-veined White, Dingy and Grizzled Skippers, Speckled Wood, Green
Hairstreaks, including a newly emerged specimen. Mark also saw an Orange-tip
and a Holly Blue. I found a male Feathered Bright moth.
