WE GOT THE BLUES

We went to Collard Hill for the Large Blue and managed to see 5 or 6 individuals. This is a first for us having failed on several previous attempts. A little disappointed that we couldn't get a better picture of them with open wings but they rarely bask with them open. 
We also went to a fantastic reserve called Westhay Moor hoping for Hairy Dragonfly, we saw a few but could get no pictures. Another one for next year.
