Hi

Help please, from Martin Down last week as there were Adonis Blues & Common Blues in this area and these two were otherwise engaged and didn't fly off so I could ID them ...

Thanks Clive

These are Brown Argus - based on the "number 8" formed by the 2 dots at the leading edge of the hindwing, next to the red blobs.

A "Guy" called Padfield taught me that one :)

Cheers,
