Speckled Wood Butterfly

Found on a butterfly hunt this morning on Castle Hill (Mouselow on OS map) Glossop. Also seen Small White, Ringlet, Meadow Brown, Gatekeeper and a Small Copper.

The afternoon birding walk to Mossy Lea Farm was rewarding finding Spotted Flycatchers and a Female Redstart at the Farm House - a fledgling bird was nearby with a Robin on a wall but it looked likely it was also a Redstart
