| | | A morning at Denbies
So I had my first time at Denbies Hillsides on Saturday, what an awesome place!! So many butterflies! Albeit only 9 species it's such a nice spectacle being there. Lots of Chalkhill Blue:
Some males  
A female 
A male and a female abberation 
The most worn male of the day 
Male and female mating   
A small gathering 
Hadn't seen this before, but one male trying desperately to mate with another
