Do you have an interest in nature and a love of butterflies? Then why not take part in the Big Butterfly Count! All you have to do is record the type and number of butterflies you see in fifteen minutes. Our Nunckley Trail, and wild-flower areas are ideal locations to stake out.
Previously one person counted 43 and another identified 12 different species. Can you do better?
Full details, including a butterfly chart and app to register your results can be found on the Big Butterfly Count Website. Interested in Butterfly conservation, then take a look at the Butterfly Conservation website.
