Nothing to add to Matthew's excellent report - just a few additional photos, including a laggard; a 3rd instar larva that has yet to recommence feeding, as well as an alternative view of the larva that has just changed into its 4th and penultimate instar. Savernake is also alive with Orange-tip and Green-veined White, and the main entrance to the forest has the most incredible patch of Cuckooflower I've ever seen. A wonderful place!
