Bonanza at Beacon Hill, Leicestershire.
On July 25th, Nick Sparrow, his better half, and Ian Surman saw 12 individual specimens between 10.30 and 15.30. The habitat is just below the hill, 240m, oak parkland, grass and bracken. They were in a sheltered lee to the east down from the top of the hill. Conditions, hot and humid.
Beacon Hill is about 2 to 3 miles south west of Loughborough.
This is the best Leicestershire result so far.
