Darter, Roesel's Bush Cricket and Gatekeeper

My first Saltwells posting for a week or so due to a short break on the Isle of Wight and my first visit of the year to Grafton Wood at the weekend. A warm sunny Tuesday afternoon brought out a decent number of butterflies, this roesel's bush cricket (as pointed out to me by Emma the warden) and the odd dragonfly or two.

Butterfly watch (11) - comma, common blue, gatekeeper, large white, meadow brown, peacock, red admiral, small skipper, small tortoiseshell, small white and speckled wood
