A visit to Silchester Common this afternoon enabled me to add silver studded blue to my increasing butterfly year list. A visit to the same spot two weeks ago, yielded none at all but today a lot more heather was in flower on the heathland and there were plenty of silver studded blues to see' It was warm and sunny and they weren't settling that often though eventually I managed to get close enough to see the silver studs on the underwings which given this species its name.
