White-letter Hairstreaks and White Admirals

White Admiral, Limenitis camilla
Yesterday I visited a White-letter Hairstreak site and saw about six flying and fighting at the top of the elms. Afterwards I went to Straits Inclosure where I met Neil and saw male and female Silver-washed Fritillaries and my first White Admirals of the year. Also Ringlets, a Red Admiral, Meadow Browns, an Orange Moth and a micro-moth: Agriphila tristella.
