Fritillaries still Active at Gamlingay

There are still lots of Silver-Washed Fritillaries in Gamlingay Woods though they are beginning to look a bit tatty. However, there was lots of courtship going on and scent distribution. The rides look wonderful with a mixture of Purple Loosestrife and Meadow Sweet. We had the usual problems identifying whites but I think these are Green-veined White and Large White. It was a first sighting for us of Marbled White there. Lots of Meadow Browns and Peacocks.
