Me and Jenna visited Lulworth in Dorset today to try and see another Butterfly we both needed,the Lulworth skipper. The Lulworth Skipper is one of the smallest of our butterflies and is restricted to the extreme south of Dorset where it can be found in large numbers along a stretch of coast centred on the village of Lulworth, where the species was first discovered in 1832.
We headed straight for the site on arrival and it didnt take long before we found our first Lulworth Skipper.
Has we were walking away from the Lulworth skipper a Corn bunting appeared in the top of a brush and stated to sing.
Its been a few years since I had seen a Corn bunting and this one showed really well.Other Butterflies and Insects of note on site were:
Brown Argus
Common Blue
Jenna found this little monster!
Great green bush cricket
Common Blue
GateKeeper
Marbled White
Red Admiral
