Default Silver studded Blues

went to prees heath , very windy across the old airfield site!
only saw about 60, it has been too cold for them to emerge properly yet! [ only another 1000 or so to emerge yet :smiley: ]
virtually all males seen, only a couple of females so far.
all shots had to cut a stem and hold in left hand to keep steady, holding approx 2-3 ft off ground to get clean background shooting single handed.

i have uploaded a few videos of the butterflys with ants, view at - Flickr: GOLDENORFE's Photostream
