Naturalists are not the only ones interested in the increased numbers of Scarce Chasers. Two weekends ago there were over 60 along the river at Tempsford. This included several such as this one that was caught in a spiders web.

And some butterflies...
A Common Blue Butterfly at Marston Vale. One of a series, this is the only shot with the dark mark over the fore-wing. Must be the shadow of a grass head, but doesn't it make it look a bit like a Large Blue :-0
A Dingy Skipper at Marston Vale. Rather a tatty individual, and also rather rushed the shot. A few minutes later, a much better posed one was chased off by a Common Blue just as I was lining up the shot.
Brown Argus, also at Marston Vale.
A Grizzled Skipper at Bison Hill, one of several I saw.
And finally, a Green Hairstreak at Bison Hill. Not a top shot, the green scales on this seem to have flared a bit, and focus isn't spot on.
