We spent the past couple of days at Ryton Woods in Warwickshire with the Wood White Butterflies one that Dave had been waiting along time to see also a lifer for me :)
We soon located them but with the sunshine so bright and the temperature really hot they were very flighty but still lovely to see, small and delicate butterflies, we also had Pearl-bordered Fritillary but also very flighty but got a record shot.
The next day with it forecasting periods of sun and cloud we decided to try again, we walked round for awhile before we saw any and they were still flighty but then are lucked changed with Dave finding a female laying eggs, Dave managed to get a shot of her laying an egg.

Being able to look at these Butterflies more closely they really are beautiful like angels :)
Also was lucky enough to have a Male settle too nice to be able to see both up close.
Just so pleased we got to see them and I also managed to get some better shots than the day before, it had been a successful couple of days 2 Butterfly lifers for me Wood White and Pearl-bordered Fritillary and also had lovely views of a Female Broad-bodied Chaser Dragonfly :)
