Badbury Rings 26/04/2026
I planned on a butterfly hunt, so just took the 400mm, so most of the shots are massively cropped. It was possibly too early and too breezy for the butterflies but some birdies made up for it!
Hope you enjoy

Who needs butterflies when you got all them lovely birds. Super set PB. Way too many favourites to pic one!

Cheers Snappy, I was a bit disappointed by the butterfly no show, I think it was a couple of Holly Blues, a couple of brimstone, maybe an Orange Tip, and that was it. Like I said, the nice birdies made up for itSnappyMac wrote: Mon Apr 27, 2026 10:00 pmYou have been busy PB...
