Spring at last





A fantastic afternoon this Sunday at The Lodge - bees everywhere and a smattering of butterflies. At least 6 species of bumblebees out and about (lucorum, terrestris, lapidarius, pratorum, hypnorum and one type of cuckoo). A small tortoiseshell and red admiral were a welcome sight too.

Biggleswade butterflies



A marbled white, small tortoiseshell and small copper (both quite fresh) on Biggleswade common.
