Red-Eared Terrapin


A sunny Sunday morning and my first sighting in over two years of 'Terry', the unimaginatively named red-eared terrapin. Although it was a pleasant enough day the butterflies were strangely absent again although I did spot my first small heath of the year on Netherton Hill.

Butterfly watch - common blue, peacock, small heath, small tortoiseshell, small white and speckled wood
