Denbies Hillside Adonis Blue Walk

The Butterfly Conservation walk at Denbies Hillside, Target Species Adonis Blue. On the Hillside a few orchids were in flower. Fragrant Orchid, and White Helleborine.


A male Adonis Blue was found that had 20% Female genes, one forewing only.


After returing from this walk, I visited Hutchinsons Bank, and found a few people who had seen or were looking for the Glanvilles.

Martin ,
Interesting that aberration , it looks like the aberrant forewing is double layered on the open wing shot .
It takes an eagle eye to spot that in the wild , well done .
