The day started overcast with light rain but brightened up late morning. I had Kingfisher and Water Vole early on and then my first sighting of juvenile Hobby this year with two birds chasing an adult, no photos but hopefully they will be around for a few weeks yet. A trip to Clough Wood was good for butterflies with plenty of Small Copper, several Wall and this fine Clouded Yellow. The latter is generally a rarity in Derbyshire with no records some years but there can be reasonable numbers when there is a strong immigration in to the UK.
