Timewarp
Not the usual vehicle on this bus route! The driver told us it is a 50 year old replica of a 1910 bus, and it will be giving tours around the centre of Nottingham this summer.

Small Tortoiseshell (Aglais urticae)
One of our commonest native butterflies, found wherever there are flowers and nettles anywhere in the British Isles, reaching the highest mountain tops and remotest islands, including Shetland. It may often be seen basking on brambles. There are usually two broods a year, the later one of which will hibernate over the winter. It is also common and widespread throughout Europe.
