Butterflies today at Hastings Country Park

A walk round The Firehills and Warren Glen today turned out to be a good day for seeing butterflies. Peacock, Painted Lady, Small Tortoiseshell, Red Admiral, Meadow Brown, Speckled Wood, Large and Small White, Gatekeeper, Comma, Green-veined White, Small Copper, Small/Essex Skipper and a Country Park first for me White Admiral. Gatekeepers are everywhere, a really good year for them and a good day for me.Small_cop                                                            Small copper
