SOUTHERN MIGRANT HAWKER AT PORTHGWARRA.

TODAY WE WENT TO PORTHGWARRA HOPING FOR THE 

SOUTHERN MIGRANT HAWKER BUT EXPECTING IT TO HAVE GONE. 

IT WAS STILL THERE AND VERY EASY TO SEE BUT BUSY CHASING OFF 

A COUPLE OF EMPERORS. IT HARDLY EVER LANDED.

PURPLE AND GOLD.

WE WENT TO BRENEY COMMON TODAY HOPING FOR BLACK DARTER 

BUT DIDN'T SEE ANY. THERE WERE HOWEVER PLENTY OF 

PURPLE HAIRSTREAKS, BRIMSTONES AND SILVER-WASHED FRITILLARIES.

CATCHING UP WITH A FEW BIRDS.

A FEW SHOTS FROM THE LAST WEEK OR SO THAT NEVER GOT POSTED.

SUE HASN'T BEEN OUT SO NO DRAGONS OR BUTTERFLIES.

THESE WERE TAKEN AT STITHIAN'S RESERVOIR AND 

AROUND THE CLIFFS OF NEWQUAY AND FALMOUTH.

WAS REALLY A BIT LATE BUT WE DID SEE A FEW STRAGGLERS.

PACIFIC GOLDEN PLOVER AT GOTHIAN SANDS.

AFTER MUCH DEBATE WE THINK THIS IS A PACIFIC GOLDEN PLOVER

AND NOT AN AMERICAN GOLDEN PLOVER.

CORN BUNTING & GREEN HAIRSTREAK.

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.
