Silver-studded Blue (m)

Silver-studded Blue / plebejus argus. Westleton Heath, Suffolk. 29/06/18.

 

A male SSB basking on top of Bell Heather. Not the best angle from where I was working to get detail of all four wings, but nevertheless, it shows their broad black borders and white edge fringes quite nicely.

He had torn part of a hind wing already, despite looking so fresh and bright.
