Field Notes

Description:

This is the first Red Admiral I have seen this year, I haven't seen any near to where I live but I was in Oxford for work when I spotted this one although it didn't stop for long! Migrant from Europe but considered in some parts of the British Isles as resident.

Habitat:

seen at Otmoor meadows in Cherwell, Oxford.
