Following last year's wet summer Scientists are saying that they are at
their lowest numbers since humans inhabited the planet. A bit of a
sweeping statement and difficult to prove I would think but I have been
concerned. Having said that I have seen more at this stage than I
actually did last year. Plenty of Commas, Brimstones, Orange Tips and
Peacocks so far plus s few Small Tortoiseshells and Green Veined Whites.
Perhaps because April was better.
