Interesting that they've seemed to have seen quite a number of Camberwell Beautys in Essex too this year. If you scroll down you can read about all those lucky people that have seen one, some lucky sod saw *two* in his back garden!

Lucky them!
Hmmm, found in a kitchen....An article in Adastra 2006 from SXBRC (http://www.sxbrc.org.uk) showed a Long-tailed Blue raised from a larva found on Mange Tout by Sarah Patton. Her photo is here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8595114@N02/1374052073/
