Brimstone Male Sheridan Close 2009
Males much more yellow than the females which can be easily mistaken for Large Whites
There were hundreds of female Orange Tip flitting round the paddock next to Peacock Lodge 2009. Unfortunately, they were very active and I wasn't so all I got were very poor photographs. I hope for better luck another time.
Male and female Orange Tip seen in Harry's Wood behind the village hall May 2017. Too fast for a photograph
