Hardcastle Crags

We walked from Midgehole to Walshaw via Gibson Mill then back over Shackleton Knoll today. A lovely day to be out.

A lot of Orange-tips throughout the woodland area especially near Midgehole and the open glades towards and beyond Gibson Mill, they were all over the place. One worn looking Peacock at Gibson Mill and quite  a few Green-veined Whites and 1 Large White though we didn't specifically identify any Small Whites though there probably were some in among.

Along the top road above the woodland we only came across Green-veined Whites - mainly on Dandelion flowers, of which there were many.
