22.06.22 Yet another morning walk in Twizell Woods (it’s a great place) looking mainly for Dragons & Damsels but anything photogenic really and there is quite a lot of it. After Twizell I went to Chester-le-Street looking for White-letter Hairstreak butterflies none were to be seen but I did get a Shieldbug and Burnet moths.
