Stoke Camp at its best

Butterfly Conservation’s Stoke Camp nature reserve on the Mendip Hills is the best place for butterflies in Somerset.  This was a great day in the height of summer.  A great variety of butterflies and grasshoppers.  A opportunity to bring but a bunch of photographs a lot of insect bites!
