For what it's worth, I saw SWF at Hatch Hill and Great Breach Wood in Somerset today. Oddly, at one point a male was sharing a meadow with chalkhill blues. It was feeding off knapweed and scabious. Shame it was dead touchy about approach and I failed to get a shot of it.

Saw a few more at Red Lodge Wood in Wiltshire today, looking a little worn at that location but still flying so looking hopeful for you.
