15.45 - 16.15. Saw a single rather tired DoB here around this time last year so with the late afternoon sun still reaching the foot of the slopes had a quick look while conditions were favourable. Looks like DoBs are doing well here. Those seen all looking fresh. I should think the population extends around to the lower parts of Grovely Down - didn't have time to explore.
