Chiltern Hills - Pasque Flower

Photos of the beautiful and threatened Pasque Flower on the Chiltern escarpment taken last weekend.  I have been visiting this spot for a number of years and the plant appear to be holding its own.  These appeared to be the first blooms with a few other plants with buds pushing through the grass . In recent years the plants have been protected from the grazing animals sitting in wire cages.
 
From a photographer's point of view last weekend's visit was excellent as the flowers did not have the cages, but I wonder if they will survive in this area no larger than approximately 50 or so square yards.
