Merrow & Pewley Downs Walk
On the warmest day of the year so far, we met at the car park, then walked across Merrow Downs, brimstone was the first sighting, then over the road onto Pewley Downs, along the blackthorn hedge peacock butterflies were feeding.
There were plenty of male and female brimstones flying, and egglaying on buckthorn.
Our first Orange Tip of the year was seen on the walk back after lunch.
