In the evening when I am walking the dog through my hay field I often disturb Meadow Browns deep in the grass so I think that's where they will be roosting, maybe the one you saw was just a bit higher on the Daisy. Deep in the grass its nice and cool, what better place. Its nice when they fly and you can spot the orange on the wings.
