Where are those poppies????

By Wayne Humphrey | Published Wednesday, 9th, Jun, 2010

I went out for a walk today hoping to find some poppies up at Halnaker Windmill similar to this picture taken by Frank NaylorOnly a lot more dramatic maybe with a sunset or rising moon.

From the bottom of the car park to the top of the hill is about 1 mile as well as including the area the size of about 10 football pitches at the top of the hill I could only find a total of 4 poppies!

There was no plan B, however on the way down the hill i came across a Chalk Hill Blue butterfly which kindly settled long enough for me to take a few pictures.
