BUTTERFLIES AND SUN

It wasn't long into my walk onto the common last Friday when I spotted this small tortoiseshell butterfly. The sun seems to bring out more butterflies on the lower meadow and this hot snap has proved to be particularly productive. I have been preparing for my trip to the Czech Republic in August, and this trip down to Epsom has helped me to get away from the computer and just walk all day.
Brown Ringlet butterflies seem to occur all over the commons too, but prefer the long grass to settle on and open their wings.
