A Butterfly Shoot - Cerne Abbas

One of my first trips to Cerne Abbas this year.
The species at this time is quite varied, ranging from the one that every one wants to catch a sight of - the Duke of Burgundy, a couple of Skippers, Green Hairstreak, Brown Argus and Small Heath.
I just missed getting a shot of the Marsh Fritillary, but I will catch up with that species sometime shortly I hope.
I have also inclueded a few scene images, which is typical of the County of Dorset.



Duke of Burgundy




Common Blue (Male)




Green Hairstreak



Dingy Skipper




Small Heath

I did get a poor shot of this species with its wings open as it was flying. 

Not something to be seen very often.


Brown Argus

Green-veined White. (Male) Spring Brood


Grizzled Skipper (Female)


Male
