Hairstreaks and Dragonflies



23 Aug - a fine day at last. I joined a guided walk around Blakehill NR, a Brown Hairstreak was seen in flight but not settled. We then moved on to Ravensroost Wood where a female was seen basking on a leaf (initially on an oak!) in the bright/sunny weather. Not near enough for a photo unfortunately.
Dragonflies seen included Southern (see photo) and Migrant Hawkers, and a late Emperor.
