Scotch Pond consists of a pond, originally a slough, dredged in the early 1950s and connected by a channel to the Strait of Georgia. Along with the pond are the remains of wooden boardwalk pilings which run directly along the south edge of the pond and were constructed in 1899 as part of the Scottish Canadian Cannery operation.

A speciality of only a few sites in Cumbria in Northern England, but more widespread in Scotland. The velvety appearance means that they scratch very quickly, so best visited early in the season. Females usually appear a little later than the males and are slightly larger and more brightly marked - this fresh female was the only one spotted amongst the dozen or so seen (6127).
Brightly coloured fresh female nectaring on brambles in the late afternoon sunshine at Arnside Knott in Cumbria (UK) (7886) - the only female spotted in three visits to the site in the last week of July, so possibly the first of the season at Arnside. Females typically appear about a week after the males take to the wing.

A pristine, bright female basking on the bracken between downpours on Arnside Knott in Cumbria (UK) (9834). An English rarity, occurring at only two sites south of the border!
The morning mist turned into the afternoon mist as there was no wind and the sun struggled to break through.
@ Arnside Knott. Identified as female due to the shorter and wider abdomen ; frustratingly bright again

1:3 , Identified as male due to the longer and narrower abdomen compared to the female on blackberries i posted ( three shots back). This specimen also has narrower forewings compared to the more rounded forewings of the female.
I count myself as someone who has been very fortunate over the years, for one thing, I was born in Scotland and I have developed a passion for capturing some stunning locations and preferably the ones that are hidden gems instead of the more well know locations. This picture was actually shot on the beach at Ardrossan, but it was not shot on the more well known part of the south beach with its mile long stretch of golden sand. This one was shot at the most northerly part of the south beach where these volcanic rocks can be seen when the tide is at a low ebb. Ayrshire has many hidden gems and this one is one of my favourites.
