Beachy Head & Horseshoe Plantation - 6th June

Back down South to check on the progress of the butterflies on the South Downs. Good numbers of Grizzled Skippers at Whitbread Hollow but have not managed to find any at Horseshoe Plantation. However at the latter I found my first Small Blues as well as Dingy Skipper, Small Copper, Large Skipper and Speckled Wood. Bee Orchids also now in flower.
