11.15 - 12.45. What a great site! No butterflies in the main (overgrazed) level area, apart from a few SH, they were all to be found on the two slopes. MF all seen on the western slope, Dukes all on the eastern slope. Must be a devil of a job to maintain the slopes, a constant battle to stop them "going over".
