Good to see dozens of Large Skipper (Ochlodes sylvanus), tens of Meadow brown (Maniola jurtina), lots of Ringlet (Aphantopus hyperantus), and a few Small Tortoiseshell (Aglais urticae), & Red Admiral (Vanessa atalanta) out in the churchyard. Just leaving the grass long and full of wild flowers makes a huge difference. Thank you Benedict for these amazing photos
