Crikey dick John, the best I've had with Peacocks on my four buddleahs is five and I thought that was good. That would have been a sight to see, it's a wonder you could see any flowers

Only my 3rd Painted Lady this year - on the farm track between Bracebridge Heath and Branston today, nectaring on Lesser Burdock. Previously - 20 August Gibraltar Point - 23 August Chambers Farm Wood Memorial Garden plus only one Wall - at the Chambers Farm Wood Open Day on 3rd August and I have heard of no reports of Clouded Yellow as yet. What a 'summer'! Regards, Freddy |
