Heath Fritillary at East Blean this afternoon - seemed quiet until the sun came out. White Admiral, decent numbers. Purple Hairstreak too I think (95%, no pic), in theory difficult to confuse.

@KentHighways historically used native tree and shrub species in planting associated with road schemes. However, now cherry laurel is their shrub of choice. This includes sensitive locations like The Blean & Bearsted Road, Maidstone, adjacent to two ancient woodlands and LNRs.

I definitely think he is describing the European variety but he seems to have transposed them from Kent (West Blean) to Wales! The Welsh estate, I think, has American bison.
The significance is the same whichever one we refer to!
