Speckled Wood Butterfly

 There appear to be many Butterflies at the moment on the Blackberry Bushes opposite what is known as the beach. On my past few visits I have seen Red Admiral, Comma. Small Blue and Peacock. The Speckled wood normally prefers the dappled sunlight of woodland areas. It can also be found in hedgerows and even Gardens. Despite declines the range has spread over recent years.
