Arnside Knott & Myers Allotment - 30th June

A trip to the Lancashire/Cumbria border where the limestone pavement provides a rich habitat for various types of wildlife. I spent the morning exploring Arnside Knott where there were some Ringlets roosting early in the morning. Later I moved on to Myers Allotment which is a small Butterfly Conservation Reserve near Leighton Moss. Here I saw some Dark Green Fritillaries, Large Skipper and Painted Lady.
