Finally the torrid temperatures of the previous few days cooled down and on 20th it only climbed to a mere 28C. I grabbed the opportunity for a walk around the woodland burial ground and The Horsefield as I hadn't been for over three weeks. I began in the Woodland Burial ground and then moved on into the Horsefield. The sun was out and it was pleasantly warm in the cemetery but by the time I got to the Horsefield it had clouded over. I was still able to count plenty of individuals but they were not perching for photography. It was good to be finding my first gatekeepers and ringlets of the year and I was pleased to find a mating pair of green-veined whites; I hadn't seen any at all for some time.
