Can anyone please identify these blues I photographed in the Cotswolds today? Many thanks.

All Large Blues. Make sure you send your sightings to the BC county recorder :)

Thanks very much. I will. It was a site I've never seen them before!!

Best keep the site secret too, at least until you hear back from BC. I think the weather we've had this year hasn't been too good for them and with Covid restrictions, surveying known sites may be a bit thin on the ground too.

I'm assuming these were sighted somewhere other than Collard Hill?

If so, then keep the location to yourself, except, as Bugboy states, to inform the recorders in that area.

Definitely, since Collard Hill isn't in the Cotswolds :wink:

Daneway Banks is the only publicised site in the Cotswolds - anywhere else, as has already been said, keep it to yourself!

Lol! Must brush up my local geography, Callum. :)

I think I know the SE of France better than I do the SW of England!
