A walk around Burdon Moor at the beginning of the month looking mainly for insects (but anything really) got me some canny images of both insect life and bird life.

To me the yellow and white bands suggest that this could
be a Gypsy cuckoo bumblebee but I’m not sure.

Green-veined White Butterfly.
Peacock Butterfly.

Male Stonechat.
