Dark Green Fritillary, taken at the wonderfully named Sharpenhoe Clappers. Back in the summer of 2007, and requiring no skill on my part, I was fortunate to find the very rare dark form A.aglaja form wimani . Subsequently identified by lepidopterist Adrian Riley, I was honoured when Adrian chose to include the image in his book "British and Irish Butterflies", (Brambleby Books, 2007.)
