If you go down to the Woods....

I spent the morning at Oversley Woods near Alcester, Warwickshire which is awash with Bluebells at this time of year.

and  trees are in Blossom

Butterflies

I walked around the perimeter of the wood where the sun was falling on the hedgerows and was able to find a number of butterflies

Orange Tip - Anthocharis cardamines

Green Veined White - Artogeia napi

and a very obliging Comma - Polygonia c-album

Other Bugs

I also managed to get some pictures of some other interesting bugs, most of which I haven't identified.

Hoverfly

Cuckoo Bee - Nomada Flava

Finally I came across this chap which I have discovered is a Cuckoo Bee which rather like a real Cuckoo lays its eggs in other Bees nests. There are several species and I think this one is Nomada Flava
