Otmoor 8th August

Along the bridleway I had a positive sighting of a Clouded Yellow that landed just 6ft away from me, unfortunately I had a banana in one hand and my 'scope in the other so I wasn't quick enough to take any pics. On the Roman Road we had at least 4 Brown Hairstreaks and a Purple as well. I took some fair snaps but not as good as Peter Law managed, but I took one which had Brown and Purple within
2 inches of each other, although a bit out of focus.
