Bit of an estimate on the Common Blues and Small Whites as they were both very numerous throughout. A delightful walk - hard to single out what I was happiest to see but perhaps the Chalkhills, the 2nd gen Dingys, the Clouded Yellows, and the Hummingbird Hawkmoths which are always fun to watch. Lots of plants still in flower despite the heat/drought.
