Here's a selction of Marcus Conway's photos taken at Sammy's Point on Sunday afternoon. In addition to the species shown there were also Painted Ladies, Peacocks, Small Tortoiseshells, Wall Browns, and Large and Small Whites. The most unusual insect of the day was the Broad-Bodied Chaser - see previous post.
