With the weather and temperature so up and down we had problems finding Butterflies and lots were seen when travelling to the mountains which looked like Large and Small Whites. A stop at a garage got us a dozen Speckled Woods. For me the best butterfly of the trip was a Large Tortoiseshell which was a great surprise and a welcome tick found at Valdiello Dam, the only one of the trip. Also at at this site I had a fly though Hummingbird Hawk Moth which was the only sighting of the five day trip. Also seen were Small Tortoiseshell at Villanua Quarry and a Bergers Clouded Yellow "we think" and at Riglos we got a couple of Wall Browns.We also got lots of Green Striped Whites on the plains at EI Planeron which is the Duponts Lark site. Last of all was a Painted Lady at Llobregat Delta.
