10 - 11.30. Got an earlier train to Pewsey than usual, so able to spend longer at Walker's Hill than normal. Mostly explored the slopes below Adam's Grave getting round as far as below the white horse. Thistles popular with the whites and vanessids. Only 4 ChB seen, and none on Knap Hill or Huish when I moved on to them during the course of the day.
