Written by Kevin Freeborn and illustrated by Ashley Whitlock’s super butterfly photography, the book offers the exciting prospect of seeing all 46 Hampshire and Isle of Wight butterfly species in 25 walks. This is the perfect introduction to butterflies and to some of the very best sites for seeing them in both counties. The routes visit 34 outstanding places of wildlife interest and take in wonderful butterfly habitats on heath and down, in woodland and along the coast. The walks draw on the compilers’ experience of observing and recording butterflies on both sides of The Solent over the past 30 years.
