28 June - I had time for a visit to Ben Lawers NNR en route home from Knoydart, and in the sunny intervals I managed to find 2 Mountain Ringlets (lower, Ben Lawers website) flying actively - neither settled for long enough for a decent photo, but I had good views of the second individual settled briefly several times. Fairly small, with orange spots around the wings. A new UK butterfly for me. Also seen - Small Heath, Common Blue (top), and several ( ?)Small Pearl Bordered Fritillaries (middle).
