Photographs from the evening of a rare hot summer's day at the end of June 2011.
A view from Steps Hill of corn fields and Pitstone Windmill
In amongst the grassy slopes of Steps Hill, I spotted a Dark Green Fritillary that had only just emerged from its chrysalis. Its wings were not fully extended when I first saw it.....
...but after a few minutes of continued pumping of fluids, they were nearly fully inflated. 
Earlier I had come across a Damselfly sitting on the blackthorn bushes
Two beautifully coloured insects.
