The Green Hairstreaks are out at Whixall 
I had a go at photographing them yesterday but I messed up the focus on all my shots !
I went back again for an hour this afternoon and managed one shot in focus
I must be out of practice 
Pleased with this shot as they are very pretty little butterflies

Surprised to see one on the farm here last year. I'll look out for them again but I suspect it was a dispersing individual. There isn't really any suitable looking habitat. |

Lovely - those eyes are just so cute. Where is the "I've gone all gooey" smilie.

They are very nice butterflies. I saw my first of the year on Good Friday, at Bison Hill, Whipsnade. |
