Good views of Brown Hairstreaks at Shipton Bellinger, Hants, today, at least 12 seen, mostly staying in treetops but a couple came lower briefly - photos here of male(r) and female(l).   |

I've just come back from holiday and I've been wondering while I've been away how the brown hairstreaks have been getting on. I briefly glimpsed one a couple of weeks ago before I went away so I knew they were out.
Today I saw two feeding on brambles by the master tree and when I came back there was one in the garden in pristine condition feeding on hemp agrimony. Later a second one came along and stayed all day, in fact it is probably still out there! It was so approachable that at one stage it flew onto my arm and opened it's wings to show me the brown upper side  |
