Large Skipper

A visit to Felbrigg today revealed that there was a couple of Large Skippers still in the meadow, which finally stayed still long enough to get some pictures.

What was presumably a Meadow Brown, the first one of the year was seen in flight but disappeared off before I could get a close view, and a few Common Blues and an Orange-Tip were also seen.
Both Broad-bodied and Four-spotted Chasers were present along the stream, and on the bird front the Cuckoo was still calling from the trees behind the lake, and a flock of c35 Crossbills flew over calling.
