4 x Orange Tip (m), 1 x Orange Tip (f), 7 x Peacock, 1 x Green-veined White.
Warm and sunny.
Bog Stitchwort has these intriguing flowers with deeply-split petals.
The path was busy with these May-flies all hovering in roughly the same spot, so I managed to get an action shot.
There are plenty of spiders around, now that the insects are increasing in numbers.
This looks like Wavy Bittercress - Cardamine flexuosa. I can count at least 5 stamens on one of the flowers, and that's more than 4. Habit looks right.
I'm having a bit of bother with this mushroom. Maybe a Bolbitius sp.
A well-worn Peacock, which are plentiful at the moment.
My first shot of a female Orange-Tip this year. They're quite distinctive in flight: not at all like the Green-veined white.
And this male Orange Tip just happened to land as I was looking at the flower for eggs.
Andrena cineraria is a common solitary bee, and I'm certainly seeing plenty of them this year.
