Orange underwings ...

I rushed down the bog as soon as I returned from scouring the County for Heronries with Red as it was sunny at last.
Saw at least 6 individuals but as they cover quite some distances along the track I was conservative in my count: there might be more.
Bri managed these shots but even at 5000th of a second they are so fast and small when high in the sky above the birches that the images are always blurry.  They hadn't come down to mate or roost by 5.30pm as promised in the book!
