Streak

It was reassuring to find another Green Hairstreak along Moorside as that's a bit of an outlying population in comparison to their main stronghold about half a mile further into the moor.  This one was in a sheltered hollow that was one of the first spots I ever found them in, but for the past three years I hadn't recorded one here. I expect timing is everything.

I only popped out for a quick walk today as I had my head down on a work deadline (10 am tomorrow). I've made good progress but will make an early start in the morning for another few hours of effort to make sure everything is ship shape.
