Green Hairstreak (Callophrys rubi)

Chartley Moss, Staffordshire

This individual has become trapped on a Round-leaved Sundew.
Here you can see brown upper surface to the wings; this species always lands with its wings closed so it is rare to see this.
The lack of a pale mark on the forewing indicates that this is a female.

Nikon Coolpix 995
1/124s f/8.5 at 27.4mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
