A warm walk around the Woodland Burial Ground today to carry out a Big Butterfly Count for Butterfly Conservation. Despite seeming quiet with few on the wing and the fact that the council have flailed the vegetation on the path around the ouside, I had a reasonable count: Large White 4, Speckled Wood 6, Small White 2, Meadow Brown 3, Gatekeeper 3, Red Admiral 1 and Peacock 1. There also a few dragonflies present but sadly not settling: Common Darter and Migrant Hawker.
