Magog Down - 4th June 2023
I paid a visit to Cambridge and the stunning Magog Down. Rolling hills of wildflower and the home of Small Blue. I had not encountered Small Blue in any great number before and the previous weekend had seen a count of 100. During my visit I saw 50 and had a personal audience with Britain's smallest butterfly. Whist trying to photograph on example, a couple landed on my hand and for twenty minutes refused to leave (not that I was complaining). They were even exploring the inside of my rucksack, so a thorough check was needed before departure to ensure I didn't take any unwanted hitchhikers home with me. Kind Regards
