Bastreet-Bodmin Moor.

4th June 2017
A day out with the Launceston Wildlife group on Bodmin Moor, looking for Marsh Fritillary Butterflies and whatever else we may stumble across. The weather wasn't great but managed to find a small number of the Fritillaries low in the grass. Also quite a lot of Heath Spotted Orchid which were just coming into flower. Not really a photography day but took a few record shots anyway. A pity I didn't have my big lens and converter with me as a Cuckoo was sat on a post being mobbed by Pipits and Stonechats, which may have made a great shot but still nice to see.
