Arnside Knott - 7th August

 A great day at Arnside Knott where I finally found the colony of Scotch Argus after searching for a few hours. There were probably ca. 20 in a small area, some nectaring on marjoram. Also a few Common Blue, Speckled Wood, Meadow Brown, Peacock, Small White, Gatekeeper and a single Grayling and Dark Green Fritillary.
