The event provides the opportunity to see the Northern Brown Argus (NBA) butterfly in one of its strongest Borders colonies at an easily accessible location.

Meet at 10.30 am at the Leithen Lodge road end, four miles north of Innerleithen on the B709 Innerleithen to Heriot Road (NT328423).  Parking on the road-side.

We will learn tips on how to find the butterfly, identify its larval foodplant and find eggs, and to recognise threats to its habitat. This will equip attendees to undertake their own surveys for NBA.

Bring warm clothing, waterproofs, packed lunch and enthusiasm. 

No dogs as this a working sheep farm.
