...we were surprised that this apparent first-summer bird didn't look quite as scabby in Pete's photos as some birds of this age that we've had a good view of before, in particular some of the outer primaries (which presumably ought to be a uniform set of worn juvenile feathers) weren't as dark as we'd have expected; our knowledge of tern moult is pretty minimal but perhaps the suggestion of more than one generation of feathers there might hint at it being older than a first-summer?
And thanks to Ken Dolbear for another nice series of butterfly photos - Small Skipper, Chalkhill Blue and Common Blues - from north of Rufus Castle:
