Had a brilliant day out with Dave, John, Kirsty & Sam looking for rare butterflies in Oxfordshire.

The definate highlight had to be getting insane views of a freshly emerged Brown Hairstreak at Otmoor, as well as tonnes of Silver Spotted Skipper, Chalkhill Blues & several Brown Argus at Aston Rowant right next to the M40. Wicked day!
