WE HAVE BEEN OUT AROUND THE COAST AGAIN IN THE LAST
FEW DAYS, ONCE TO THE NEWQUAY AREA AND YESTERDAY TO 
PORTHLEVEN AND ON TO GWITHIAN. 
SURPRISED AT HOW MANY PEREGRINES ARE AROUND. 
ALSO LOTS OF BUTTERFLIES AND DRAGONFLIES.

    It is really encouraging to hear that Peregrines are numerous. There was a time not too many years ago when we thought we might never say that again. The picture of the Linnet is superb. And the others are not too shabby either, John!

    Lovely set. The GRD wins it for me though. Relatively scarce in Kent.

    Lovely photos, I think the common blue is actually a male silver studded blue?

    What a fabulous collection of images! I was quite surprised to see your Green Hairstreak as it's quite late for them. I was highly amused by your Peregrine shot of it flying over someone's head - priceless!!

    My very best wishes to you and Sue - - - Richard

      Hi Richard, We walked the Porthleven Coastpath and there were quite a few of them. Sue
