I can't keep up with everyone due to RSI but thanks anyway for visiting my stream :-)
The female Common Blue can be confused with the Brown Argus. However Brown Argus has no blue on its wings (though may have ahint on the body) and has a border of clear orange spots across both wings (in the female Small Blue these are less promounced or even partly missing).
......managed to get lots of shots of the Brown Argus this summer at different reserves, this one taken at Attenborough. E-M1 MKII/100mm.
