Large Tortoiseshell
As  Dungeness was fog bound all day, we had a Wednesday club day out to Orlestone Forest which was bathed in warm sunshine, primarily to hopefully see Large Tortoiseshell butterflys was ver successful. We also had super views of Crossbills and a Goshawk and got a few year ticks we don't see at Dungeness on the shingle like Nuthatch, Coal Tit, Jay, Treecreeper, Bullfinch etc. The trip ended in the usual manner with Tea and cake provided by Owen.
