I went up to the driving range at Tubney and the Doghouse range to look at butterflies this afternoon. There were plenty about - I came across Brown Argus, Common Blue, Peacock, Speckled Wood, Small Copper, Small White and Brimstone. A few settled and allowed me to photograph.

Greater and Lesser Stitchwort are both in flower on the Red course at the moment and are quite similar to Field Mouse Ear which is also in flower on the Red and Blue courses.
