Yesterday I arrived at Steyning Rifle Range around 11:30am and met Sherie who had arrived a few minutes before. The weather was excellent for Brown Hairstreaks and we were not disappointed. We had five sightings with at least four individuals on the bottom site and two more, including a near pristine specimen at the top of the hill. I then visited Chantry Hill - great views.
