Definitely not as numerous as last year but I am encouraged by the recent positive ID of an Essex Skipper. Whereas I saw 16 species in one day at the end of July last year I have probably seen 10 or so species in the few days over the end of July and beginning of August. They include Large White, Common Blue (pictured), Small Copper, Comma, Peacock, Essex Skipper, Brown Argus, Meadow Brown, Gatekeeper and Red Admiral.
