Aston Rowant - Silver-spotted Skippers
Aug 7 - A warm sunny day, and good views of 20+ Silver-spotted Skippers in an hour or so, very active buzzing around in the sun. Over a hundred Chalkhill Blues also seen, similarly not really settling for the camera. Also a few Brown Argus and Small Heaths.

Summer insects.....
31 July - A brief foray to Hampshire in sunny weather gave a good selection of Dragonflies at Slufter's Pond, New Forest. The highlight was 2 Black Darters but Southern Hawker, Emperor, Keeled Skimmer and Common Darter also seen, along with a single Silver-studded Blue.
At the usual Shipton Bellinger, site, good views of a smart perched Brown Hairstreak.

Whitecross again
3 July - a quick look revealed no Black Hairstreaks, probably too late in the season. My first Silver-washed Fritillaries and White Admirals of the season seen.
