Just found a colony of Dingy Skipper butterflies nearby,unfortunately they are on private land with no public access,I have permission to visit site. I saw several in a relatively small area,don't know if there are any more sites in the county with them??

Pete,

Consider yourself very privileged (I'm certain you do). I would almost kill to see these! I hope that the colony is known to the relevant authorities as I feel it is probably unique in Greater Manchester? If not, it should be reported.

Regards,

Andy
