An early blip today, as this fellow was quite happily resting as I wandered the garden with the last of the first pot of tea. I think he must have spent the night there, and is in no mood to rush off. I think he's a holly blue and male (females have a black edge to the underwing).

Getting ready today for a few days in Molly Camper. It rather feels like getting one in before the next lockdown commences, after Johnson failed utterly to close the gates in time to the now spreading Indian variant.

A couple of extras added later, after lifting the main shot exposure +1
