From Winchester city centre, through the water meadows, and then up St Catherine's Hill is a walk we did almost exactly a year ago, but then we didn't pay any attention to butterflies ...
Fewer butterflies on the water meadows than I expected; just a green-veined white and a few small whites.
St Catherine's Hill featured more or less what we expected: lots of meadow browns, a few small heaths, plus chalk hill blues, common blues, a brown argus ...
... and an adonis blue!
Ten species in total, as shown in the table (one = 1; few = 2-4; several = 5-9; many = 10+).
