    [description] => 
Join one of our expert guides (usually Prof Tom Brereton) in search of a wide variety of plants, farmland birds, downland butterflies and other insects at one of Hampshire’s premier wildlife sites, Martin Down, to the south-west of Salisbury. This 355-hectare National Nature Reserve (managed by Natural England) contains a mosaic of chalk grassland, scrub and woodland habitats. We will walk at a gentle pace across the Down and the adjacent Vern ditch, making frequent stops to observe the abundant flora and fauna. On our July visit we may hope to see specialities such Dark Green Fritillary, White Admiral, Turtle Dove, Hobby, Dwarf Sedge and Frog Orchid, whilst in August the focus will be on looking for Chalk Hill Blue, Adonis Blue, Silver-spotted Skipper, Corn Bunting, Grey Partridge, Bastard Toadflax and Lesser Centaury. A further bonus will be the rich archaeology that includes the prominent neolithic Borkerley Ditch.

Summary

Join one of our expert guides (usually Prof Tom Brereton) in search of a wide variety of plants, farmland birds, downland butterflies and other insects at one of Hampshire’s premier wildlife sites, Martin Down, to the south-west of Salisbury. This 355-hectare National Nature Reserve (managed by Natural England) contains a mosaic of chalk grassland, scrub and woodland habitats. We will walk at a gentle pace across the Down and the adjacent Vern ditch, making frequent stops to observe the abundant flora and fauna. On our July visit we may hope to see specialities such Dark Green Fritillary, White Admiral, Turtle Dove, Hobby, Dwarf Sedge and Frog Orchid, whilst in August the focus will be on looking for Chalk Hill Blue, Adonis Blue, Silver-spotted Skipper, Corn Bunting, Grey Partridge, Bastard Toadflax and Lesser Centaury. A further bonus will be the rich archaeology that includes the prominent neolithic Borkerley Ditch.
