After seeing my first Green Hairstreaks of the year yesterday I thought I would fit in a bit of time watching them today in the sunshine. Little did I know how cold the wind would be though and I only saw them in a sheltered patch. A lot of battles went on between the two seen and already they are both showing a little bit of wing damage. It was really good though watching one of my favourite butterflies back on the wing.

A little further along the valley some Brown-tail Moth larvae seen in their larval nest. My first Dragonfly of the year was also seen in the shape of a Hairy Dragonfly.
