We might take a trip up on Friday (weather permitting) to look for the hairstreaks, is there any particular area where they might be found please ?

They are on Wych Elm on the righthand side of Haw Park Lane going towards the wood, through the metal barrier, near the first bend opposite an oak on the left. It has to be sunny to see them - right at the top of the tree.
