Skippers

A lovely sunny morning today started to bring out a few more butterflies as i wandered round the gullet at Priors hall near Corby. First up were the Common Blues, Small heath and some brilliant Grizzled Skippers.
As it warmed up there we more on the wing and we saw this Green letter hairstreak. They are fantastic and charismatic.
Then finally we picked out the Dingy Skippers as well as Green Tiger Beetles running, jumping and flying as we walked down the track.
Unfortunately there were not too many Hoverflies but a great morning anyway.
