Small Blue (Cupido Minimus)

The weather forecast was ostensibly good for Bishops Itchington in Warwickshire today, so I set off full of optimism. However, after four hours of walking about under dull skies, in a cold breeze, I was ready to give up. During one last patrol of the hill however I noticed something small and silvery - almost on its side - crawling very slowly out of the grass, and finally found what I'd been searching for.
