Having problems with blogger tonight. I did a post, published it then it's just gone .... I'll try again.. !
Luddenden Dean this afternoon - dismal when we got there but the sun came out and shortly afterwards the butterflies started to show. We went around the upper dean from Jerusalem Farm doing both sides of the valley. The east side was best - in the warm sunshine.
Best was a Wall, near The Nunnery and a Large Skipper near the closed graveyard
Wall - distant on ragwort
Elsewhere plenty of Green-veined White 30+, Meadow Brown 30+, Speckled Wood 30+, Peacock x 5, Red Admiral x 4, Small Copper x 4, Gatekeeper x 1, Small White x 1, - no Ringlets and , surprisingly, not a single Small Tortoiseshell.
