14 July - a rare appearance by the sun coincided with an excursion to Hazeley Heath in Hampshire. 20-25 Silver-studded Blues were seen (including some fresh males) a beautiful tiny member of the Blue family, and rather localised. I also flushed a Grayling from the path and saw it well several times as it settled. Heath Orchids were also flowering, and dragonflies included Keeled Skimmer and Ruddy Darter.
