Tockington
Had a Brief Walk around Tockington after work, there were lots of Butterflies on the wing. Good numbers of Gatekeepers, Large Whites, Peacocks, and Tortoiseshells. Had my first Small cooper of the year just off Moor Lane. The fields produced the best Butterfly of the year. A stunning Clouded Yellow. I spent 90 minutes trying to photography this butterfly. Firstly it wouldn't sit still and then it kept crossing over the stream and out of reach. I managed one poor shot. Hopefully will get another chance to photography one again this year. Also around were Small Skippers, Ruddy Darters, and Beautiful Damselflies.
Also had my First Tockington Peregrine Falcon. Not the best photo!!
