Great stuff Kevin.  Saw your post on BC site.  Has anyone confirmed a first sighting for Ringlet?

Aye it is. When you look at the BC Map, they don't get recorded in Lancs. A woman in Nelson told me she had them in her garden, but not seen them there yet.

ringlet isn't mentioned on the Lancashire and Cheshire avifauna society website either.  I do know that they are in Townley Park in Burnley though .

cheers Kevin
