Return To Sender.

Apologies folks but my letter from Barnwell yesterday turned out to be junk mail as the butterfly in question was in fact a Purple Hairstreak. Sorry about the unsavoury stringy business but I thought that I could see the white W that gives the species its name. The orange spot on the underwing should have tipped me off but it's not all bad as the photo is much better than the one I already had of Purple. It's a good job that the county recorder saw the picture, I promise that I will try harder in the future.
