A late afternoon visit when the sun finally appeared.

I was hoping to find an Adonis Blue of the second generation though didn't have any luck, probably still a little too early. However, there were fairly good numbers of Common Blue, most quite worn to some extent, as were several Small Blue seen on slopes near the main entrance. 

However, the most numerous butterfly was Gatekeeper, with Brimstone and Peacock also present.
