Dragonflies.

At long last there are a few Dragonflies around. These were taken on visits to Ventongimps, Bissoe Valley and Breney Common, were we also saw just one Silver-Studded Blue Butterfly.

A few days away.

At the beginning of the week we were staying in Winchester so we went across to Bentley Wood hoping for Purple Emperor, no such luck. We also called in at Collard Hill on the way up and back for Large Blue but all we got for our troubles was a Marbled White and a lot of rain.
