Re: Spring/Summer firsts.....

I've seen a few Peacocks, a Holly Blue, Wood Whites, Orange Tips and what I'm sure was a Painted Lady.

Yesterday, a few Green Tiger Beetles (CICINDELLA CAMPESTRIS) and quite a few Pill Millipedes on a woodland footpath. We had to be careful not to stand on them!

In the bird world, Swallows and Chiffchaffs but I'm watching out for the Redstarts. I'm sure I've heard a couple....but haven't spotted one yet.
