Evening all,
In a couple of weeks I shall be on the A303 to Basingstoke so I wanted to ask if there is still a chance of seeing any Purple Emperors and if so then could I please have some more information on where and how to see them?
Same for Silver-spotted Skippers.
Many thanks,
Andrew.

I think you'll be too late for Purple Emperor and the most reliable site would have been Bentley Wood.
For SSS I'd suggest Stockbridge Down - they're in the scrub next to the road that runs along the side of the down (at the western end).
Cheers,
