I haunt a nearby meadow daily,
(left Common Ringlet) during June and July searching for butterflies, but after the grass

has been mown there,
(right Clouded Sulphur) I wander off searching other areas and only check that area infrequently
after that. Yesterday, after having seen two large birds fly over the river, I decided to check out the area.
No large birds were to be seen but I found myself wandering in a corner of

the meadow in which I seldom go.
(left Northern Crescent) Much to my surprise I found four different butterfly species there!

I shall continue to check out this area
(right Meadow Fritillary) in the next few days to see if I can find other butterflies there.

Silver-bordered Fritillary
