White Letter Hairstreak
Finally got a very brief sighting of one today, by the Yarrow at the bottom of Mill Lane in Euxton and about 400 yds to the right along the river. It flew right past me, clearly a hairstreak from the flight pattern, but then it flew into an elm (more precisely a Wych Elm), so I'm pretty certain it was a white letter hairstreak. There are several elms in the area, almost all with well eaten leaves, so it's likely there are many more around.
