I’ve only noticed the appearance of this pretty little butterfly species in the last couple of days. They are the devil to photograph – very small, often ensuring several blades of grass get between it and you so the focus goes awry, and always on the move. That’s my excuse, anyway.

Agreed – such a pretty blue. But they are tiny and constantly on the move, so I found it really hard to get clear shots while chasing round the field after it! RH

Their blue hairs makes it worth it when you catch them and the exercise is good for you, I suppose 🙂 Amelia

A good point well made. But which, I ask myself, is more appropriate for me – training for and running an oldies marathon (as if!), or sauntering round our paddock with a camera knowing there’s a bottle of half-decent white wine cooling in the fridge… No, Amelia, not the marathon!

You have to remember what happened to the first chap that ran from Marathon to Athens. 😦

Yes, not the best advert of strenuous exercise. Still, at least poor old Pheidippides managed to blurt out the good news – ‘we have won’ – before he died. If they’d lost it would have been more poignant, I think.
