Bolton Percy Station

 


A visit to this YWT reserve to take part in the Big Butterfly Count. In previous years this little reserve was a haven for wildlife, but Network Rail destroyed most of it when making alterations to the track to shave a few seconds off journey times.

A pair of buzzards were calling as they circled overhead and house martins were chattering as they collected insects before returning to their nest on a nearby farmhouse.

The butterflies were not very obliging with their poses!
