Looking closely at butterflies on Buddleia can bring a rare reward. On the 25th August 2006 at Flamborough, the late Martin Garner and I caught sight of a larger butterfly flying across my garden. It rested on a wooden post and that’s when I realised it was a rare Camberwell Beauty!
June started as May ended with a good selection of overshooting scarce and rare birds. A male Rustic Bunting was the pick of a great bunch of birds at Spurn on the 1st alongside Golden Oriole, three Red-backed Shrike, Marsh Warbler and two Common Rosefinches.
The wonderful thing about wildlife is its everywhere, from an urban concrete jungle to a wild national park.
Wow what a great month! This is a bumper edition with loads of sightings includes more than the usual moths and butterflies. From record numbers of Dukes and a rare Purple Cloud to a hat trick of Eastern Subalpine Warblers
One of my favourite resident woodland birds is the Common Nuthatch. Despite many problems for songbirds in the UK, the Nuthatch has increased its range and numbers in recent years.
