Back to the Common



Quick afternoon visit, breezy but warm sun and butterflies enjoying themselves: two brimstones, two orange tips, three each of small coppers and male common blues, a couple of grizzleds and a probable dingy.... Also several burnet companions and mother shiptons. Plenty of warblers singing, including sedge and garden, and a sulphur-hued yellowhammer. Still not heard a turtle dove purring this year though :-(
