Yup, it's round-up time, selection below of pics from latest expeditions!
The green-eyed monster... Norfolk Hawker @Strumpshaw Fen

 Black-headed Gull @Strumpshaw

Green hairstreak in the car park at RSPB Lakenheath Fen

Marsh helleborine @Foulden Common, new to me there but

 Brown Hawker just emerged from its nymph case and drying off

Emerald Damselfly @Strumpshaw Fen

 Male Orange-tip on scabious

Female Broad-bodied Chaser
 Surely among the top events of the summer so far: one of the many

Another Breckland highlight: male Clouded Buff
