I read on the Sussex BC site that chalkhill blues are out. Has anyone seen any at Denbies yet?

I hope to visit Denbies tomorrow or late Sunday at some point - I'll report back. There were none last weekend.

None at Old Winchester Hill on trips at Sunset Thursday and Sunrise Saturday. Plenty of newly emerged Marbled Whites though

As posted elsewhere, three seen at Denbies yesterday and four today. Not a startling emergence so far, but they're there. On neither afternoon was it particularly sunny, though it was very warm and unusually calm for the hillside!

I saw at least 20 plus today including one female at denbies. Next week should be cracking as next few days are due to be cooler so emergence will slow I guess.
