Sleepy stud on the beach today. Nice body, not an ounce of flab. Dreaming of something nice, I imagine....
Silver-studded Blues / plebejus argus. Lindrick Common, South Yorkshire. 21/06/20.
'ALL A QUIVER ...'
This image shows the moment a rather worn male Silver-studded Blue located a female. She was one of only two I saw during my visit.
He fluttered down to where she was perched and landed facing her, very close. Immediately she responded and started quivering her wings frantically whilst he stroked her antenna. This then induced her to open and raise the tip of her abdomen to an almost vertical position. I was hopeful of seeing them mate and catching some images, but their actions stopped abruptly when a Dark Green Fritillary dashed past. It spooked them sufficiently to make them fly off in different directions!
My image was a grab shot, but if viewed larger you can just make out the male’s left antenna moving over the top of the female’s. Also, check out her elevated abdomen. Such a pity they were disturbed ...
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
The rare Silver-studded blue butterflies (Plebejus argus) are gradually making a comeback on our local heathland in West Sussex. With a wingspan of 3cm, they should start emerging towards the end of this month (June). As they rarely move more than 50 metres in their lifetime, colonizing new sites is a slow process. I produced this photo-montage of several of the species for the local parish magazine cover. © David Hill.
Anything goes theme for Feb STUD sent to Quiltsgaloreandmore. I used Moda Authentic fabric and templates...very daunting....but it turned out to be very easy!

Fa veramente caldissimo per riuscire a concentrarsi in una maniera decente per l'esame di Diritto Privato che, INESORABILMENTE, si avvicina. E questa volta VIETATO rimandare, a costo di studiarlo anche mentre pranzo o al posto di dormire, è giunta l'ora di toglierselo.
Enjoy ☆
