Small Coppers at Cissbury Ring

Small Copper
This afternoon I visited Cissbury Ring. The commonest butterfly was the Small Copper, with the largest numbers I have ever seen on the ground covering brambles on the north east area of the top. I also saw Whites, 2 Common Blues, Red Admirals, many Speckled Woods and two Silver Y moths.
