Started on the meadows in a circular route so that I would end up at the café at the water park.
Some of the highlights from today's walk, in the main butterfly's. All taken with a Sigma 17-70mm lens, trying it out properly for the first time.
Small Tortoiseshell - Sun loving caterpillar's feed on nettles
Comma - feeds on nettles, note the ragged edged wings

And to finish off the walk with a nice piece of Carrot Cake at the SWP Café - great afternoon!!
