I have a day to myself tomorrow (Saturday), and the forecast is better than of late. So I'd welcome suggestions on where I should go, starting from South Cambridgeshire.
Possibilities that have occurred to me:
- Devil's Dyke / Burwell for Green Hairstreaks and Dingy Skippers
- (Further afield) Whipsnade / Bison Hill for Dukes and Grizzled Skippers
Any other ideas?

Rosalyn and I (and Nick???) are going to Bison Hill tomorrow where you will also probably see Dingy Skippers & Green Hairstreaks as well as the Dukes & Grizzlies you mention.

Come down to Land's End car park, Cornwall at 10am. Then you can meet me and Sami as we begin our Epic Butterfly Walk all the way into Scotland! 1200 miles of butterflying, botanising and birding with no-one but ourselves to answer to. It's gonna be GREAT!!! So if you set off in about 2 hours or so you should make it in plenty of time
Cheers,
Gibster.

I think Lands End is a liitle out of my range, but I wish you best of luck with your walk!
Bison Hill is looking like a possibility though. I''ll look out for other butterfliers and introduce myself if I see any likely suspects!
