Not like the big patches to be seen further south in the Pennines. Well done on the small copper. I don't think I've seen one this year.<br />ChrisJBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08970529384848928198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945686662242865677.post-88784474508723491922016-09-21T09:55:29.327+01:002016-09-21T09:55:29.327+01:00Some of us tried a few cranberries on the "tw...Some of us tried a few cranberries on the "two Sundew sites" hike - they taste just like the cultivated ones, as might be expected.<br />The walk round Ripponden/Risworth led by Peachysteve was great - lots of interesting plants; also a Common Buzzard flying and circling quite near us in the sunshine. A Small Copper Butterfly was a good sighting - first report of the year for me.

Must try to find the site as there are often other interesting species close by.<br />We walked around Ripponden/Rishworth yesterday and saw a few Red admirals as well as some interesting fungi. Around Booth Wood we looked at Lesser Hawkbit and Intermediate Enchanter's Nightshade, both rare for the area.Peachystevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04252746912455479996noreply@blogger.com
