7 miles ramble round the Loder valley nature reserve and beyond
This walk was from the Mid Sussex Ramblers' programme of walks. It went through many varied habitats. A highlight was a kingfisher viewed from the kingfisher hide. The meadows were full of butterflies and damselflies - a few of which are captured in pictures below.
Painted ladies were everywhere - the parents of these having travelled from North Africa.
This Brimstone was less common and more difficult to get a picture of.
This looks like a Gatekeeper, above.
This fritillary has taken a bashing. Open the picture to view its damaged wing edges.
