Friday 6th

It was clear from early in the morning that something big was happening with Red Admirals. There were individuals all over the bushes, along the track, and even in the moth trap. A timed point count looking across the asparagus fields revealed butterflies heading inland at approximately 100 a minute. This was repeated on multiple occasions so many thousands must have passed through.

A Painted Lady was at Restharrow Scrape. Very few have been seen this year.
