As with the summer visitors, use the "reply" if you have seen a species earlier.

Thanks Ian, Have you a Map ref or Post code I could pin these too? I also struggle with the numerous, guessing about 4 - 6 of each species perhaps or less?

Hi David
Sorry to be vague on numbers as I'm always unsure if it they are new butterflies or the same ones moving back and forth. Should have said numerous sightings. I had 3 separate sightings of Green-veined White about 30 mins between each. Peacock was seen on at least a dozen occasions, Small Tortoiseshell at least twice as much during about 5 hours in the back garden today.
Approx grid ref is SD571167 in the Gillibrand North estate.
Regards, Ian
